A significant increase in real world event monitoring capability with wireless sensor networks will lead to a further evolution of ubiquitous computing. This paper describes this evolution, leading to humans being connected to the real world via computers without awareness. We address an ad hoc communication paradigm, a data-centric approach, and a middleware’s task, to understand the ultimate ...

Sensors continue to pervade our surroundings in undiminished ways [...]

We propose a novel computer gaming style in which users can enjoy games through their daily lives without paying too much attention and time for the games, we call it lifestyle ubiquitous gaming. Lifestyle ubiquitous games track human daily activities implicitly and incorporate the tracked activities in their game logics. Then they represent decorated and virtualized those activities on ambient...

This framework for human behavior monitoring aims to take a holistic approach study, track, monitor, and analyze during activities of daily living (ADLs). The consists two novel functionalities. First, it can perform the semantic analysis user interactions on diverse contextual parameters ADLs identify list distinct behavioral patterns associated with different complex activities. Second, an in...
