Context-Aware Ubiquitous Service Composition Technology
Yoji Yamato, Yohei Tanaka, Hiroshi Sunaga · 2007
A context-aware ubiquitous service composition technology is proposed. This can be used in both enterprise and consumer communication service environments. Because the context-awareness is the one of the most important factors in ubiquitous computing, it is insufficient in conventional service integration based on rigid interface design. The flexible service composition based on user context is required. Our proposed approach is that a service composition engine discovers suitable service elements from the network based on the user context and binds them dynamically in accordance with a semantic-level service scenario. Evaluation results show effectiveness and sufficient performance of this architecture.
