One of the key characteristics of pervasive computing applications is their ability to adapt to their environment. One possible approach to simplify the development of such adaptive applications is to use middleware to automate adaptation decisions. However, in many application scenarios, adaptation decisions can have critical security implications. Thus, when designing middleware to support adaptation...
Ageing populations and the necessity to reduce environmental impact raise new challenges on our living buildings. Convergence of home control systems (air conditioning, light management) and computer science, or house automation, allows to enhance comfort, security and health of inhabitants, and reduce energy consumption. Each of these abilities can be perceived as a service provided by the house...
In pervasive environments, users can potentially access a variety of services through their mobile devices. However, in order to use the new services, we need to adapt the functionality of these devices. To achieve it, we propose to load a bootstrap into them that is able to communicate with the services. However this bootstrap has to be adapted due to the diversity of services offered in the environment,...
