Uhvatite znanje na licu mjesta: ususret autonomnoj i prožimajućoj usluzi sadržajnog znanja

Knowledge must be acquired not only at the moment when it is presented, but also at the site where it is applied to. To guarantee the immediate acquisition of context-rich knowledge at anytime and anywhere, fullyautomated as well as pervasive capabilities must be considered together. This paper proposes a methodology to capture knowledge on the spot in an autonomous and pervasive manner by deploying the Smartphone as a sensor to monitor and gather dialogue-based knowledge and context data. Smart-ConKAS (SMARTphone-based CONtextual Knowledge Acquisition System), a prototype system, is implemented to validate the proposed concepts.Znanje se stječe ne samo u trenutku kada je predstavljeno nego i na mjestu gdje se primjenjuje. Kako bi se jamčilo trenutno stjecanje znanja bilo kada i bilo gdje moraju se uzeti u obzir potpuno automatizirane i prožimajuće sposobnosti. U ovom radu predložena je metoda stjecanja znanja na licu mjesta na autonoman i prožimajuć način korištenjem pametnog telefona kao senzora za nadgledanje i skupljanje znanja i podataka. Smart - ConKAS (SMARTphonebased CONtextual Knowledge Acquisition System) je prototip koji je korišten kako bi se potvrdio predloženi koncept

Extracting Requirements for Ubiquitous Computing Technology-based IS Using Factor Analysis

The paper describes a methodology for extracting the requirements for ubiquitous computing technology-based information system (IS) using factor analysis. The early idea of ubiquitous computing was articulated by Mark Weiser in 1988 and since then has been constantly developed. However, so far there was no any or few research on application of ubiquitous computing to IS. Prior to the development of a ubiquitous computing-based IS model necessary requirements are to be identified. To derive the requirements we refer to conventional research on ubiquitous computing, ubiquitous service and ubiquitous environment, and hence, to their characteristics. Having specified those requirements using factor analysis technique it will be easier to develop a consistent ubiquitous computing-based IS

Ubiquitous Computing Based Mobile Commerce : Toward the Ubiquitous Commerce

Mobile commerce is heading for advanced fourth generation (4G) mobile systems. However, rapid development of ubiquitous computing technology can implement and complement the 4G mobile systems. It enables anticipation that ubiquitous computing technology creates the new commerce, so called ubiquitous commerce. This paper analyzes the characteristics of mobile commerce service and ubiquitous computing service, and then extracts the core requirements for ubiquitous commerce. Moreover, this paper suggests technical requirements for the ubiquitous commerce. These requirements can lead the development of technology for the future and suggest the milestone that mobile commerce in present heads for

INTELLIGENT AND PERVASIVE ARCHIVING FRAMEWORK TO ENHANCE THE USABILITY OF THE ZERO-CLIENT- BASED CLOUD STORAGE SYSTEM

The cloud storage-based zero client technology gains companies ’ interest because of its capabilities in secured and economic management of information resources. As the use of personal smart devices such as smart phones and pads in business increases, to cope with insufficient workability caused by limited size and computing capacity most of smart devices have, the necessity to apply the zero-client technology is being highlighted. However, from the viewpoint of usability, users point out a very serious problem in using cloud storage-based zero client system: difficulty in deciding and locating a proper directory to store documents. This paper proposes a method to enhance the usability of a zero-client-based cloud storage system by intelligently and pervasively archiving working documents according to automatically identified topic. Without user’s direct definition of directory to store the document, the proposed ideas enable the documents to be automatically archived into the predefined directories. Based on the proposed ideas, more effective and efficient management of electronic documents can be achieved
