This paper introduces a hybrid recommendation platform providing information about tourist resources depending on the user profile, location, schedule and the amount of time for visiting interest points isolated or combined in a route.
Accessing the Internet and specifically the World Wide Web from a mobile phone is common today. Especially since the usage fees for packet-data access dropped to a point where anybody who can can afford a mobile phone can afford mobile Internet access. Almost every mobile phone today comes with an integrated web browser that can display HTML web pages and execute JavaScript. Almost all major web sites...
In this paper, the design and implementation of a video surveillance system based on 3G wireless mobile Internet access is proposed. The realization of both wired Ethernet and the wireless 3G accesses of Internet are implemented. A database in the video control server to automatically store the selected frames of the video stream data is implemented. A high-speed video monitoring sub-system using...
This paper presents the design and implementation of a mobile application along with a web server for geo-tagging favorite and interesting places and sharing them with the community. The design and architecture shows some key aspects and issues concerning this kind of system. The mobile application is implemented in J2ME and tested on GPS enabled Nokia phones and the web server is implemented on cloud...
This paper is written to show that a mobile phone is most suitable a terminal to control home network system considering accessibility and user convenience. There are methods like that SMS having advantages of communication costs and direct-reaction and Mobile internet having advantages of high level user interface and scalability. This paper presents SMS control technique based on the instant messenger...
Nagios is a popular network monitoring tool that can be used to monitor network services as well as data like processor load due to an SNMP interface. The visualization of status and alert messages can be conducted with a Web interface. Many plugins for the Nagios system are available that extend its features, also wrt. visualization of data. But so far, none of them allows users of PDAs like, e.g...
Although mobile devices are rich sources of context information, the distribution of context in mobile environments is often hindered by the limited battery life, and wireless connections with low bandwidth. In this paper, we present two different implementations that enable context distribution in mobile environments. The first solution relies on a presence service architecture and publish-subscribe...
In this paper, we show that Web protocols and technologies are good candidates to design the Internet of Things, through a user-centric architecture (the user simply has to use a standard Web browser). We detail how this Web of Things can handle typical embedded devices interaction needs. We discuss the technical feasibility of embedded Web servers, and, thanks to an analysis of the Web protocols,...
The mobile blogging system involves remotely updating a web site from a mobile phone. It represents an attempt to bring reality closer to the end-user via sending text messages to a Web site. Today in Africa communication is hampered by lack of adequate physical infrastructure this may include: poorly constructed road networks, limited access to electricity and unreliable telecommunication infrastructure...
Mobile applications performance is a crucial aspect that depends on many factors, especially when they consist of client-server applications. In this article several of these factors are investigated by doing some performance evaluation based on Web server response, network connection method and execution platform. This investigation is carried out with respect to application speed, which is a crucial...
Mobile search prototype demonstrates the possibilities of social network search in N800 mobile devices. Search is initiated from a N800 mobile device to search the contacts in mobile device's addressbook. The contacts can be other N800 mobile devices running mobile Web server or normal Web servers in the Internet with Drupal content management system. Mobile device users can select which of their...
People who travel to a place may not know well about the information of the sites. Fortunately, people may have a personal device such as a mobile phone which has a digital camera and broadband wireless accesses, and the device can serve as a convenient equipment to access the information of geographic locations when people visit the place. This paper presents a system, called the GLOBE (GLobe On...
Because of the limited capability of mobile devices and lower bandwidth of wireless network, web-based e-commerce in mobile wireless environments suffers more challenges and it needs an efficient and reliable mechanism to support the process. This paper presents a flexible and configurable mechanism, which uses mobile agents as brokers of mobile device to communicate with Web server, thus to reduce...
Advances in Internet and network technology and the rapidly growing number of mobile personal devices result in the fast growth of mobile e-service, m-commerce and e-learning. A personalized recommendation system based on J2ME was proposed and realized in the paper. The structure of system, realization process and key technologies of J2ME system structure, XML analysis, data transmission between mobile...
We have developed an remote surveillance system, which is organized with an integrated web/mail server, network cameras, remote control devices and web-based clients. Some kinds of devices can be used as our clients including, for example, high-performance mobile phone, which are equipped with Java virtual machine and web-browsing facility. Our integrated server is designed to play intensive roles...
There has been a shift in the focus of indoor localization research from improving accuracy to minimizing infrastructure requirements. The reason is well understood: since location information only serves as a parameter to location-based services, the cost of deploying localization systems should be a minute fraction of the total cost of provisioning location-based services. We demonstrate the possibility...
Currently, people gain easy access to an increasingly diverse range of mobile devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), smart phones, and handheld computers. As dynamic content has become dominant on the fast-growing World Wide Web (C. Yuan et al., 2003), it is necessary to provide effective ways for the users to access such prevalent Web content in a mobile computing environment. During...
Many peer to peer (P2P) systems have been proposed in wired networks. However, they are not directly applicable to wireless networks because of mobility and the lacking of routing mechanism. In this paper, we propose scalable, self-organizing, self-addressing, self-routing and location-a ware peer-to-peer system, abbreviated as SLAP, for mobile wireless ad hoc network (MANET). SLAP solves highly traffic...
Mobisaic is a World Wide Web information system designed to serve users in a mobile wireless computing environment. Mobisaic extends the Web by allowing documents to both refer and react to potentially changing contextual information, such as current location in the wireless network. Mobisaic relies on client side processing of HTML documents that support two new concepts: dynamic uniform resource...
