In this paper we present proposition and initial evaluation of unsupervised method of GDL classifier learning that enables automatic generation of GDLs descriptions using specified features and sample movements recordings. New automatically generated GDLs are well understandable the same as manually defined descriptions. This property enables easy interpretation of obtained training results in contrast to the results from others popular pattern recognition methods.","PeriodicalId":345694,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129802174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, these objects have Internet connection. A great number of these objects have various sensors: accelerometers, GPS, pressure, light, temperature, gravity or proximity. The essence of the concept of Internet of Things is to interconnect all these heterogeneous and ubiquitous objects among them. Some Smart Cities or Smart Homes allow a part of this concept. But this has a problem, the software that an object needs to be interconnected with the IoT platform. To create this software users need to develop the application and need developer skills. In this paper we propose a solution to this problem. We propose a graphical Domain-Specific Language for creating the necessary software for interconnecting any object with an IoT platform. For this proposal we will use the IoT Midgar platform.","PeriodicalId":345694,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"167 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132849952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While, in one hand, these systems can be very beneficial to control and optimize the overall network services that studies the topology, traffic paths, packet handling and such others, on the other hand, the servers in such architectures can also be a potential target for DoS and/or DDoS attacks. We, therefore, propose a mechanism for the SDN based CDNi networks to securely deliver services with a multi-defense strategy against DDoS attacks. Addition of ALTO like servers in such architectures enables mapping a very big network to provide a bird's eye view. We propose an additional marking path map in the ALTO server to trace the request packets. The next defense is a protection switch to protect the main servers. A Management Information Base (MIB) is also proposed in the SDN controller to compare and assess the request traffic coming to the protection switches.","PeriodicalId":345694,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"5 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114039572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There, people do not receive energy consumption feedback nor do they pay a monthly invoice to electricity providers. Thus, there is practically a non-existent perception of energy waste, and hence, there is low motivation to reduce it. To tackle this problem we transform everyday shared electrical appliances which are placed in common spaces into collaborative eco-aware everyday things. These eco-appliances make people aware that they are not alone to save energy, but the everyday things can team up with them to achieve this task. Qualitative and quantitative results were gathered in three case studies performed with shared coffee machines at workplace. The objective was to assess the effectiveness of the proposed eco-aware design in terms of energy saving and the degree of affiliation between workers and the smart appliance to create a green-team relationship.","PeriodicalId":345694,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122700541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The design space of an Android smartphone is very large as it spans over many hardware parameters such as the processor pipeline, cache configurations, memory capacity, as well as software configurations and tunables in the operating system, middleware, and applications. It is desirable to have a set of design space exploration (DSE) tools which can be used to find good design points in such a large space. However, traditional architectural simulation tools are too slow to explore the design space in a timely fashion. To facilitate DSE for Android smartphones, we proposed a framework, called ADSET, which adopt a fast full-system modeling technique and a parallel DSE method to concurrently evaluate multiple design points. In this paper, we explain the framework in details and evaluate the effectiveness of ADSET in finding good designs in a large design space.","PeriodicalId":345694,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128508032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To gain a competitive edge, many gyms have installed systems to log exercise data. An individual's exercise data can be used to track personal progress, as well as to provide positive feedback and motivation. The majority of these recorded data comes from rotation based exercise equipment, such as stationary bikes, treadmills, ellipticals, and rowing machines, because it is easy to log data with rotational sensors or electromechanical resistance. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no method of recording exercise data from gym equipment that utilizes weight stacks and pulleys as resistance. The objective of this work is to propose an exercise data logging system that collects data from retrofitted weight stack equipment using off-the-shelf sensors and microcontrollers. This data logger has been designed and implemented with a simple web-based user interface.","PeriodicalId":345694,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127254265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
