As the vision of ubiquitous computing becomes reality, there is a possibility for user interfaces that follow the user through the physical world by jumping between local display devices. This paper presents previous attempts at this functionality and identifies their limitations. Justified by these limitations, we then present our novel method that uses new features of web-based technology. This...

By detecting patterns on those behaviours, an environment can adapt and respond to the inhabitants' needs, thus improving the quality of life. This paper presents a framework in which those ideas can be applied and tested. It includes a system using a...
