A Collaborative Environment for Service Providing in Cultural Heritage Sites

2004

We present a model which can be used to describe hybrid entities in an augmented reality environment. An architectural description of the model is firstly given. Next, a FIPA-compliant agent description of the model is proposed. Finally the paper discusses an overview and some implementation details of a project dealing with Augmented Reality context aware services in a cultural heritage site. These services are provided based on visitors customized profiles and current position in the site, as revealed by a positioning site implemented with low cost Bluetooth devices (cellular phones, PDAs, USB terminals).

A Context Aware Learning Application for Communities of Service Technicians

2016

The gathering of knowledge and competences needed to accomplish work related tasks is carried out in several ways. It can be done, planned in the long term to brace oneself for a new area of responsibility or in the short term to prepare for a concrete forthcoming task or while working on a task. The latter two happen quite often at the workplace. In this paper, we present a context aware mobile application supporting workplace learning of service technicians working at different locations including customer service. The originality of the presented application lies in the combination of the question a answering concept with the microlearning concept and in the context awareness of the appl…

An Agent-based Service Network for Personal Mobile Devices

2006

We propose the Agent Network for Bluetooth Devices, a system that uses personal mobile devices as adaptive human-environment interfaces to supply people with ad hoc information and high-level services. The ANBD system operates with a hierarchical framework of service-providing nodes, dynamically composed and managed by mobile agents.

Presenting the Past: A Framework for Facilitating the Externalization and Articulation of User Activities in Desktop Environment

2006

Work processes are conducted in various contexts and they involve different tasks, interruptions, activities and actions. In all of these, tacit knowledge plays a part. Some part of that tacit knowledge can be externalized and articulated by continuously monitoring the user’s activities. Because the desktop environment is an integral part of almost any office work context, we chart the demands the unstructured and discontinuous nature of work puts on the management of desktop working context. We discuss possibilities to augment the user’s awareness of his/her desktop working environment by providing a context-aware application that can act as a map-like resource for the user’s past activiti…
