Computing devices are increasingly being incorporated into the physical environment that surrounds us, with smaller, cheaper, more reliable and lower power consumption appliances being manufactured. Presently, there is a profusion of mobile devices with multiple resources such as cameras, screens, keyboards, speakers, recorders and many others. These resources are commonly replicated in the environment,...
Ambient Intelligence technologies are going to be used more and more frequently to realize Ambient Assisted Living applications to support elderly and ill people at their home. This paper presents a software infrastructure that enables the rapid prototyping of smart applications for monitoring patients in environments like homes or hospitals. The paper also describes an application built upon such...
If we expect the computer to vanish in the background, to make pervasive computing a reality, first we must be able to provide the illusion that all the user's computers, devices, and applications are part of a greater, virtual, computer. In order to build such a virtual computer, resources must be provided with a portable programmatic interface to interact with programs running on top of current...
The design and implementation of home appliance control based on information from sensors is presented. In a ubiquitous networking society, there are a lot of devices connected to a network. However, many kinds of networks coexist, and they use different communication protocols. Therefore, a technology to integrate different networks is necessary to provide flexible services, which can control various...
Computing technology is radically changing the manner in which we work and communicate with computers. ubiquitous virtual reality (U-VR) has been researched in order to apply the concept of virtual reality and its technology into ubiquitous computing. In this paper, we analyze past research on ubiquitous virtual reality and find future research direction.
