Ubiquitous and context-aware computing modelling : study of devices integration in their environment
Dissertation presented as the partial requirement for obtaining a Master's degree in Information Management, specialization in Information Systems and Technologies ManagementIn an almost imperceptible way, ubiquitous and context-aware computing make part
of our everyday lives, as the world has developed in an interconnected way between
humans and technological devices. This interconnectedness raises the need to
integrate humans’ interaction with the different devices they use in different social
contexts and environments. In the proposed research, it is suggested the
development of new scenario building based on a current ubiquitous computing
model dedicated to the environment context-awareness. We will also follow previous
research made on the formal structure computation model based on social paradigm
theory, dedicated to embed devices into different context environments with social
roles developed by Santos (2012/2015). Furthermore, several socially relevant context
scenarios are to be identified and studied. Once identified, we gather and document
the requirements that devices should have, according to the model, in order to
achieve a correct integration in their contextual environment
