Uma arquitetura de software direcionada à consciência de contexto na UbiComp

Abstract

Ubiquitous Computing has as central premise to allow the user access to their computing environment from any place, any time, from any device.The developed work contributes to the subsystem of Adaptation and Context Recognition of EXEHDA. It proposes an architecture to the context awareness service, which in a distributed way, supports the stages of acquisition, storage and processing of contextual information, and the corresponding actuations on the environment. The general objective is to provide a solution able to acquire contextual information in a autonomic way, as well as allow remote acting on the environment, using electromechanical devices. To evaluate the functionality of the proposal was used as case study the Project AMPLUS (Automatic Monitoring and Programable Logging Ubiquitous System), which is designed to promote Ubiquitous Computing solutions to the Laboratório Didático de Análise de Sementes (LDAS) da FAEM/UFPEL. Among the services to be provided, stands out the context awareness which they are the LDAS equipments, with its respective historic track of context, and a proactive actions when necessary.
