SOUPA: Standard Ontology for Ubiquitous and Pervasive Applications
- In Int. Conf. on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Networking and Services
, 2004
"... We describe a shared ontology called SOUPA – Standard Ontology for Ubiquitous and Pervasive Applications. SOUPA is designed to model and support pervasive computing applications. This ontology is expressed using the Web Ontology Language OWL and includes modular component vocabularies to represent i ..."

Trust Model for Open Ubiquitous Agent Systems
- In Intelligent Agent Technology, 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference, number PR2416 in IEEE
, 2005
"... Trust management model that we present is adapted for ubiquitous devices cooperation, rather than for classic client-supplier relationship. We use fuzzy numbers to represent trust, to capture both the trust value and its uncertainty. The model contains the trust representation part, decisionmaking p ..."

Automated Trust Negotiation in Autonomic Environments
"... Abstract. Autonomic computing environments rely on devices that are able to make intelligent decisions without human supervision. Automated Trust Negotiation supports the cooperation of devices with no prior trust relationship. They can reach an agreement by iteratively exchanging credentials during ..."

A Security Framework for Smart Ubiquitous Industrial Resources
"... Abstract. Conventional approaches to manage and control security seem to have reached their limits in new complex environments. These environments are open, dynamic, heterogeneous, distributed, self-managing, collaborative, international, nomadic, and ubiquitous. We are currently working on a middle ..."

middleware platform focused on the industrial needs, UBIWARE. UBIWARE integrates Ubiquitous Computing with Semantic Web, Distributed AI, Security and Privacy, and Enterprise Application Integration. In this paper, we describe our long-term vision for the security and privacy management in complex multi-agent
Chapter 32 ANTE: Agreement Negotiation in Normative and Trust-enabled Environments
"... Abstract The ANTE framework encompasses results of research efforts on three main agreement technology concepts, namely negotiation, normative environments and computational trust. ANTE has been conceived as a general framework with a wide range of applications in mind. This chapter provides an over ..."

Negotiating flexible agreements by combining distributive and integrative negotiation. Intelligent Decision Technologies
, 2007
"... This paper presents an approach to automated negotiation between agents which attempts to combine the advantages of a co-operative value adding approach, with the reality that negotiating agents are also competing. We use the concept of a trusted mediator to facilitate openness regarding what one va ..."

agents. We take inspiration from the social science literature and develop a computational framework to support negotiating software agents. The framework includes recognition that agents are self inter-ested, and therefore will manipulate the system to their advantage if possible. We include mechanisms
Intelligent Agents for Automated One-to-Many e-Commerce Negotiation
- Twenty-Fifth Australian Computer Science Conference
, 2002
"... Negotiation is a process in which two or more parties with different criteria, constraints, and preferences, jointly reach an agreement on the terms of a transaction. Many current automated negotiation systems support one-to-one negotiation. One-to-many negotiation has been mostly automated using va ..."

Building Ambient Intelligence into a Ubiquitous Computing Management System
"... Abstract—The ANS is a ubiquitous computing management tool, designed to mimic the Autonomic Nervous System of living creatures. Its job is to manage an intelligent distributed environment for e-medicine applications. The homes ’ computing power consists of many computing units of varying capacities ..."

A General Purpose Programming Framework for Ubiquitous Computing Environments
"... Abstract. It is important to note that the need to support ad-hoc and potentially mobile arrangements of devices in ubiquitous environments does not fit well within the traditional client/server architecture. We believe peer-to-peer communication offers a preferable alternative due to its decentrali ..."

The result is a general purpose framework for developing ubiquitous applications and services, where the underlying complexity is hidden from the developer. This paper discusses our ongoing work; presenting our design decisions, features supported by our
Adaptive Resource Discovery for Ubiquitous Computing
- In Proceedings of the 2 nd Workshop on Middleware for pervasive and ad-hoc computing
, 2004
"... The terms pervasive and ubiquitous computing are used to describe a smart space populated by hundreds of intelligent devices that are embedded in their surroundings. Characteristically, ubiquitous computing devices must blend into the background, unobtrusively collaborating to provide valueadded ser ..."
