A new architecture for home computing
Kana MATSUURA, Tomoaki Hara, A. Watanabe, Tatsuo Nakajima · 2004
Currently, many companies have been working to build home servers that manage home appliances in our houses. However, the approach is not appropriate for future ubiquitous computing environments because it is very difficult to allow us to use home appliances in a seamless way when we move at several places. We propose a new architecture called personal home server. In our approach, each user has a home server and customizes the way to use these appliances according to his preferences and situations. The approach is very helpful for building future domestic environments.
