A Composite Sensor - based Context Modeling Method for Context - aware Pervasive Computing
نویسنده
چکیده
Context-aware systems are one of the most important application domains of pervasive computing. In this paper, a new context model is proposed, which is based on the composite sensor concept. Unlike simple ones (physical, virtual or logical sensors), a composite sensor is a logical sensor which is integrated from simple and/or other composite ones. Therefore, composite sensor has more semantic meaning than simple ones and can be used to describe complicated context domain objects, in a natural way that separates requirement from design. Based on composite sensor context model, we present a context modeling method, ComSensor, and a pervasive computing architecture, ComArch, which is suitable for different kinds of pervasive computing applications. The performance examining results of a simulation prototype system show that applications based upon ComArch can run in real-time mode.

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...
متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
متن کاملContext-aware Modeling for Spatio-temporal Data Transmitted from a Wireless Body Sensor Network
Context-aware systems must be interoperable and work across different platforms at any time and in any place. Context data collected from wireless body area networks (WBAN) may be heterogeneous and imperfect, which makes their design and implementation difficult. In this research, we introduce a model which takes the dynamic nature of a context-aware system into consideration. This model is con...
متن کاملCAMAC: a context-aware mandatory access control model
Mandatory access control models have traditionally been employed as a robust security mechanism in multilevel security environments such as military domains. In traditional mandatory models, the security classes associated with entities are context-insensitive. However, context-sensitivity of security classes and flexibility of access control mechanisms may be required especially in pervasive c...
متن کاملA Context-aware Workflow Framework and Modeling Language
In the pervasive and mobile computing environment, workflow and context information are closely linked, workflow management system have to interact with a variety of sensors. Therefore, the design and development context-aware workflow applications become complex and difficult to migrate to other platforms. In order to simplify the development of context-aware workflow applications and enhance ...
