  2. 16. Distributed Technology-Sustained Pervasive Applications

    Author : Kim J.L. Nevelsteen; Theo Kanter; Rahim Rahmani; Kåre Synnes; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pervasive; games; engine; distributed; virtual; world; internet of things; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Technology-sustained pervasive games, contrary to technology-supported pervasive games, can be understood as computer games interfacing with the physical world. Pervasive games are known to make use of ‘non-standard input devices’ and with the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), pervasive applications can be expected to move beyond games. READ MORE

  4. 17. Promoting Semantic Interoperability of Contextual Metadata for Learner Generated Digital Content

    Author : Martin Svensson; Marcelo Milrad; Ulrich Hoppe; Niels Pinkwart; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metadata; contextual metadata; user-generated content; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Media Technology; Medieteknik;

    Abstract : Technological advancements in computing have led to a reality where computational devices are more mobile, connected and context aware than ever before. Several of these devices are primarily designed for or support the creation of digital content via built-in or attachable sensors, e.g. mobile phones. READ MORE

  5. 18. Improving everyday experiences using awareness and rich communication

    Author : Josef Hallberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Medical Engineering for Healthcare; Medicinsk teknik för hälsovård;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis presents ubiquitous systems for human communication and awareness from the perspectives of improving our everyday life experiences and relieving our scarcest resource, ourselves. The thesis also presents different methods of designing such systems with the user needs in focus. READ MORE

  6. 19. Impulse Radio UWB for the Internet-of-Things : A Study on UHF/UWB Hybrid Solution

    Author : Zhuo Zou; Hannu Tenhunen; Tor Sverre Lande; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ultra-Wideband; impulse radio; IR-UWB; RFID; asymmetric links; UHF UWB hybrid; wireless sensing; energy detection; low power; radio receiver; positioning; Internet-of-Things;

    Abstract : This dissertation investigates Ultra-Wideband (UWB) techniques for the next generation Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) towards the Internet-of-Things (IoT). In particular, an ultra-high frequency (UHF) wireless-powered UWB radio (UHF/UWB hybrid) with asymmetric links is explored from system architecture to circuit implementation. READ MORE
