COSAR: hybrid reasoning for context-aware activity recognitionPersonal Technologies - Tập 15 Số 3 - Trang 271-289 - 2011
Riboni, Daniele, Bettini, Claudio
Human activity recognition is a challenging problem for context-aware systems and applications. Research in this field has mainly adopted techniques based on supervised learning algorithms, but these systems suffer from scalability issues with respect to the number of considered activities and contextual data. In this paper, we propose a solution based on the use of ontologies and ontological reas...... hiện toàn bộ
BHE-AC: a blockchain-based high-efficiency access control framework for Internet of ThingsPersonal Technologies - Tập 26 - Trang 971-982 - 2021
Baobao Chai, Biwei Yan, Jiguo Yu, Guijuan Wang
In this information age, with the emergence of organizations, the number of various resources on the Internet of Things is also increasing. Generally, different users have different access permissions to different resources and most of the existing schemes have realized access control. But most of them are rough and not feasible in many organizations. Moreover, traditional access control schemes a...... hiện toàn bộ
Cross-community context management in Cooperating Smart SpacesPersonal Technologies - Tập 18 - Trang 427-443 - 2013

Recently, social networks have become the most prevalent IT paradigm, as the vast majority of Internet users maintain one or multiple social networking accounts. These accounts, irrespectively of the underlying service, contain rich information and data for the owner’s preferences, social skills, everyday activities, beliefs and interests. Along with these services, the computation, sensing and ne...... hiện toàn bộ
A Context/Communication Information AgentPersonal Technologies - Tập 5 - Trang 78-81 - 2001
Jason I. Hong, James A. Landay
We are developing a Context/Communication Information Agent (CIA), an autonomous software agent that proactively searches for the right information at the right time. Our goal is to design and evaluate a system that leverages what people naturally do, using this knowledge to retrieve information, and presenting it with a minimal cost of disruption to the users. In this paper, we describe the resu...... hiện toàn bộ
Modelling group dynamics for crowd simulationsPersonal Technologies - Tập 26 - Trang 1299-1319 - 2022
R. A. Saeed, Diego Reforgiato Recupero, Paolo Remagnino
This paper investigates a new method to simulate pedestrian crowd movement in a large and complex virtual environment, representing a public space such as a shopping mall. To demonstrate pedestrian dynamics, we consider groups of pedestrians of different size, sharing a crowded environment. A pedestrian has its own characteristics, such as gender, age, position, velocity, and energy. The proposed ...... hiện toàn bộ
Mobility-aware routing in delay tolerant networksPersonal Technologies - Tập 19 - Trang 1111-1123 - 2015
Lichen Zhang, Zhipeng Cai, Junling Lu, Xiaoming Wang
Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) make use of opportunistic encounters of nodes for communication. The characteristics of high mobility of nodes, frequent link variation and long communication delays in DTNs result in an absence of an instantaneous end-to-end path from any source to a destination, making routing a challenge in DTNs. To deal with this issue, a lot of routing schemes have been proposed...... hiện toàn bộ
