In order to facilitate the development and proliferation of multimedia services in ubiquitous environment, a context-aware multimedia middleware is indispensable. This chapter discusses the middleware support issues for context-aware multimedia services. The enabling technologies for the middleware such as representation model, context management, and multimedia processing are described in detail. On top of our previous work, the design and implementation of a context-aware multimedia middleware, called CMM, is presented. The infrastructure integrates both functions of context middleware and multimedia middleware. This chapter also aims to give an overview of underlying technologies so that researchers in ubiquitous multimedia domain can understand the key design issues of such a middleware.

New Framework

Pervasive environments are characterized by limited computing resources and wireless connectivity. In parallel, current application domains have variable transactional requirements that do not fit the traditional ACID model. As a result, the pervasive environment characteristics are compelling and cannot be supported by conventional solutions that are typically dedicated to a specific application domain and support a limited set of context parameters. This article aims at providing a complete solution that addresses the challenges of the adaptability of context-aware transactional services “CATS” in pervasive environments. Thus, a new framework CATS-CAE was designed, which offers a comprehensive structure of multiple component chains. The adaptation strategy in CATS-CAE is based on a hybrid approach combining the use of adaptation policies, alternative strategy and behavioral adaptation of composite services through the “Profiled Task Class” concept. A probabilistic model is also presented to support the efficiency of the proposed approach.

In the last years ontologies are being used in the development of pervasive computing applications. It is habitual their use for facilitating the interoperability among context-aware applications and the entities that may enter in the context at any time. This chapter presents OntoHealth: an ontology applied to health pervasive environment and a tool to its processing. The main idea is that a hospital could be seen as this pervasive environment, where someone, through ubiquitous computing, engages a range of computational devices and systems simultaneously, in the course of ordinary activities, and may not necessarily even be aware that they are doing so. With the proposed ontology and the tool for its processing, the medical tasks can be shared by all components of this pervasive environment.

Context-aware systems are getting rapid popularity towards enabling a pervasive computing environment over hand-held mobile devices, wearable devices, and Tablets.  These systems deliver services tailored to the specific needs and user’s context. The context-aware system services can utilize information about the user’s context to adapt services based on the user’s location. The prime aim of this research paper is to investigate and analyse the critical issues and challenges while delivering the job information to the job seekers when they migrate from one place to another in search of jobs. In addition, the research also tries to investigate the challenges faced by employers/ job providers when they search and recruit the right person for the right jobs. In this paper the issues and challenges investigated and analysed were timeliness of information dissemination, opportunity missing, fake/genuine information, anywhere, anytime accessibility over small handheld devices. After rigorous analysis of the investigated issues and challenges in the existing state of art employment/job information dissemination systems, a real-time context-aware employment information delivery system framework for the pervasive environment is proposed. The research parameters considered are Preference of Job seekers, Location of Jobs, Context, Qualification, CGPA, Experience, everywhere access at any time, and Identity.  The paper used both the quantitative and qualitative approaches for proposing a research-based applied solution. Survey of job seekers, Interview of recruiters, and technical observation of the researcher are used for collecting the relevant facts to check the researchability of the issues and challenges. Protégé version 4.3 is used for modelling, Edraw-Max for designing the framework, Google Form for Survey, and Justin mind tool for Prototype design and testing. The framework and its Prototype was examined using a user acceptance test. The acceptance test indicated that 84.6% of target stakeholders accepted the proposed system framework as a new knowledge solution for the aforementioned issues and challenges in the employment sectors
