Abstract

The purpose of this research is to propose an efficient management scheme for Virtual Personal World (VPW) which is a model focused on service continuity of personal world. Previous ubiquitous frameworks have been concerned with where is the user is serviced and what services can be offered in that space. However those questions above are not the most important problems anymore in VPW. We also introduce a management scheme for the real world object based on the concept of Virtual Objects (VO). As users can use some services unique way with various VOs, VPW framework creates User-Generated services automatically. It helps users to satisfy their specific personalized services. Our proposed manage scheme of user-generated service increases generation of service about seven times than a scheme without generation. Consequently, we find generated services encourage user satisfaction. We simulate the possibility that a user takes proper service which is not needed generation newly.
