UbiRoad: Semantic Middleware for Context-Aware Smart Road Environments
2010
A smart road environment is such a traffic environment that is equipped with all necessary facilities to enable seamless mobile service provisioning to the users. However, advanced sensors and network architectures deployed within the traffic environment are insufficient to make mobile service provisioning autonomous and proactive, thus minimizing drivers’ distraction during their presence in the environment. For that, an Intelligent Transportation System, which is operating on top of numerous sensor and access networks and governing the process of mobile services provisioning to the users in self-managed and proactive way, must be deployed. Specifically, such system should provide solution…
Proactive Future Internet: Smart Semantic Middleware for Overlay Architecture
2009
Some initiatives towards Future Internet, e.g., GENI, DARPA's Active Networks, argue the need for programmability of the network components. Some other initiatives extend this with argumentation for declarative networking, where the behavior of a network component is specified using some high-level declarative language, with a software-based engine implementing the behavior based on that specification. Our Proactive Future Internet (PROFI) vision follows these initiatives targeting also the following two problems: interoperability of the network elements programmed by different organizations, and the need for flexible cooperation among network elements, including coordination, conflict reso…
