A Context-Based Device Collaboration System in Ubiquitous Environments

In ubiquitous environments, invisible devices and software are connected to one another to provide convenient services to users. In order to provide such services, we must have mobile devices that connect users and services. However, the types of available services have thus far been limited due to the limited resources of mobile devices. This paper proposes a solution to the resource limitation problem of mobile devices by presenting a context-based collaboration system that allows mobile devices to share various nearby resources. Our system has a feature to enable personalized resource sharing by dynamically re-configuring user's preference and resource information.
