Traditional shopping activity seems to leave way to electronic commerce. But there're still lots of people who need or like the traditional situational shopping. The paper tries to provide helpful tools and methods for consumers' shopping. With the popularity and up-coming of the ubiquitous computing technology, we hope to design a kind of ubiquitous media device. This device is designed specially...
For the current shortcomings of the agricultural information system, the paper introduces the Google Maps-based electronic farm system for the information service of the end-user ubiquitous demand. With running instance of the system the paper shows the implementation methodology and implementation process for the key part of the system. Given the design principles which are the simplifying of the...
For the current shortcomings of the agricultural information system, Systematically this article introduces the electronic farm system based on Google Maps for the information service of the end-user ubiquitous demand. Given the design principles that the user's operating system should be simple and the system interface should be humanized and the participation should be interactive, the paper shows...
The 21st century started new era of global workforce, connectivity, ubiquity and mobility. Past decade will be remembered by dynamic developments and innovation in the field of information technologies (IT), communications and ubiquitous Internet technologies. The 21st Century started with innovation and dynamic developments in the area of next generation networks, Internet 2-3 and Web 2-3 technologies...
The Internet evolved to a generic platform and became a fully pervasive infrastructure providing services anywhere and anytime. The development of the cloud allows the assumption that every needed service has already been implemented. The authors argue that this technical viewpoint needs to be enlarged by service science aspects, where technology is only one perspective beside others like new business...
The author worked past year as Professor & Head of School of Computing, Information and Mathematical Sciences and Director of Japan Pacific ICT Centre at the University of South Pacific. The South Pacific Region has many problems related to environmental and economic issues. The University of the South Pacific (USP) is an ideal platform for provision of development of Human Resources and enhancement...
We examine an attempt to implement a joint IT infrastructure between a large multi-national high-technology manufacturing firm and a large mining firm. We identify several occasions where innovation failed and the manufacturing firm could not establish a new network of partnerships with their customers enabled by the introduced IT capabilities. Our study highlights a change in the forms of materiality...
This paper discusses the new technologies in u-commerce, including: wireless technology, new voice recognition and radio frequency technology, new digital TV technology, microprocessor technology. And then reviews the main issues, including: value and privacy.
The emergence of the knowledge society, building on the pervasive influence of modern information and communication technologies, is bringing about a fundamental reshaping of the global economy. Knowledge has always been a factor of production, and a driver of economic and social development. However, the capacity to manipulate, store and transmit large quantities of information cheaply has increased...
Next generation networks, as well as the future Internet, aim to provide context-sensitive business services that adapt to changing user needs, business goals, and environmental conditions. This paper describes the composition of an autonomic element, as a fundamental part of an autonomic architecture, which uses information models and semantics to link the business services with the services provided...
As telecom carriers migrate their networks to a common IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) based infrastructure, they face a challenge of providing services to their customers based on the current need or situation of the customer. We have seen how Web 2.0 allows a user to build situational applications or mashups. We have used the concept of context to provide a framework to service providers for providing...
The current Internet, while successful in many aspects, has a set of associated architectural and business problems that threaten its stability and inhibit new advances, such as seamlessly supporting ubiquitous computing applications. This paper proposes a set of autonomic mechanisms that can manage the future Internet. The context-aware governance features of this approach are particularly suitable...
Mobile-enabled social networks applications are becoming increasingly popular. Most of the current social network applications have been designed for high-end mobile devices, and they rely upon features such as GPS, capabilities of the World Wide Web, and rich media support. However, a significant fraction of mobile user base, especially in the developing world, own low-end devices that are only capable...
Next generation networks, as well as the Future Internet, need to provide context-sensitive services that adapt to changing user needs, business goals, and environmental conditions. This article presents a novel autonomic management methodology and associated architecture to make the networks and devices that it manages responsive to context-aware business needs. This approach provides a mapping between...
Radio frequency identification (RFID) and near field communication (NFC) are promising technologies to build a ubiquitous ldquoInternet of thingsrdquo and related forms of human computer interaction (HCI). We present here a ubiquitous touch-based remote grocery shopping process fitting well with some RFIDpsilas and NFCpsilas peculiar benefits and favorable characteristics. We have designed and implemented...
Telecommunication and Internet services are constantly subject to changes, seeking the customer's full satisfaction. Enriching these services with innovative approaches such as context-aware, mobile, adaptable and interactive mechanisms, enables users to experience a variety of personalized services seamlessly across different platforms and technologies. In this sense, advertising is not exception,...
Radio frequency identify (RFID) is one of technology to facilitate ubiquitous environment. For the ubiquitous environment, it is necessary to model a RFID information framework where based on network. A web service is a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) that can achieve the purpose. Use the web services by internet; enterprise will exchange information quickly and easy. And enterprise could strategy...
This paper designs the dasiatag matchpsila advertising system which uses mobile RFID. Tag match advertising (TMA) combines features of the mobile RFID characteristics and content match advertising model on the Internet. TMA can be defined as dasiaan advertising model, based on mobile RFID application, which offers advertisement for users after the consideration of userspsila demographic information,...
This paper proposes the 'Tag Match' advertising business model which uses mobile RFID. Tag Match Advertising (TMA) combines features of the mobile RFID characteristics and content match advertising model on the Internet. TMA model can be defined as 'an advertising model, based on mobile RFID application, which offers the most appropriate advertisement for users after the consideration of users' demographic...
