Basic Structure of a Sensor Network

Ian F. Akyildiz etc,”A Survey on Sensor Networks”, IEEE Comm. Mag., pp.102-114, August 2002

•Wireless communication: Large errors

• Low power consumption• Low computational capacity,

small memory• Infinite number

A node called a sink collects the data

Users send queries to the sensor via the Internet or another network

12

• The proliferation of mobile computing devices allows any user to fetch content and access services everywhere. On the other hand, the objective of context-aware computing aims at personalized services based on the user’s situation, preference, etc.

• In our project, we seek a new content delivery paradigm for mobile devices based on users’preference, environmental and physiological states.

• We monitor users’ context with a set of off-the-shelf worn sensors. The monitored context includes user’s location, environmental situation and physiological states. This information is then used to trigger a notification to the user’s content as well as the content selection.

Goal: A Context Aware Content Delivery Service

Application:A User Navigation system CoCo

• CoCo: a context-aware user navigation system – CoCo system aims at navigating users in Jimbo-cho, the largest book market of the

central Tokyo.

• Content recommendation using the user context and preference

• Even if the nearest display has changed, the sender FO need not to be aware of the change of the destination FO.

Example: Display presentation image at the nearest display　　　　　　　Sender FO (Power Point Sender) sends the following packet.

Resolver routes the packet to the destination FO while resolving names in the packet's header.
