This thesis introduces a novel approach in which multiple heterogeneous devices collaborate to provide useful applications in an ad-hoc network. This thesis proposes a smart home as a particular ubiquitous computing scenario considering all the requirements given by the literatu…
The evident progression of ubiquitous technologies has put forward the introduction of new features which software systems can sustain. Several of the ubiquitous technologies available today are regarded as fundamental elements of many software applications in various domains. T…
In this thesis, we focused on designing wearable human activity recognition (WHAR) systems. As the first step, we conducted a thorough research over the publications during the recent ten years in this area. Then, we proposed an all-purpose architecture for designing the softwar…
The rapid development of mobile technologies has facilitated users to generate and store files on mobile devices. However, it has become a challenging issue for users to search efficiently and effectively for files of interest in a mobile environment that involves a large number…
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Ubiquitous Networking, UNet 2019, held in Limoges, France, in November 2019. The 17 revised full papers presented together with 1 short paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 41 submiss…
