  • UPS – an Ubiquitous Proximity Eservice for Trust Collaboration
    UPS – An Ubiquitous Proximity eService for Trust Collaboration Yuan-Chu Hwang1 and Soe-Tsyr Yuan2 1 Department of Information Management, National United University, Taiwan No. 1, Lien Da, Kung-Ching Li, Miao-Li 360, Taiwan, R.O.C. [email protected] 2 Department of Management Information Systems, National Chengchi University, Taiwan No. 64, Sec. 2, ZhiNan Rd., Wenshan District, Taipei City 11605, Taiwan, R.O.C. [email protected] Abstract. Ubiquitous e-service is one of the most recent links in the chain of evolution that has characterized the different eras of the internetworking environment. The ubiquitous proximity e-service highlights the collective effort focused on collecting the user group’s power as the reference for ubiquitous trust decisions. In this paper, we define the ubiquitous proximity e-service and discuss the significance of ubiquitous proximity e-service. Simulation outcomes for trust decision quality enhancement show significant improvement in all kinds of environment settings. The ubiquitous proximity e-service makes it possible for users to collaborate with the nearby user groups for establishing a reliable and trustworthy interaction environment. It also facilitates and empowers the potential benefits of various ubiquitous e-service applications. 1 Changes of Proximity in the U-Commerce Era The ongoing developments of ubiquitous commerce have brought human life into a new era. Classic social science studies long ago demonstrated that proximity frequently increases the rate of individuals communicating and affiliating in organizations and communities [1,4]. Proximity also develops strong norms of solidarity and cooperation. While advanced telecommunication technologies have led some to conclude that the problem of distance has been overcome, others argue that proximity remains essential to group functioning and that new technologies cannot eliminate the challenges faced by members of geographically-dispersed teams.

Chandra Sekhar** * Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science Engineering, Pragati Engineering College, Surampalem, Kakinada, India ** Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science Engineering, Pragati Engineering College, Surampalem, Kakinada, India Abstract: Ubiquitous computing eliminates the bottlenecks of conventional business in such a way that users get a thrilling experience as well as their purpose is also served.The main underlying principle in ambient intelligence is that computing ,communication ability is stored in smart devices which can be objects ,locations, people. Conducting online business with smart devices increases savings in overall cost for all stakeholders involved. Though reliability is a challenge research work in this direction has already been initiated by the major bodies working in this area. Index Terms: Ambient, EDI, Smart, VMI & Ubiquitous 1. Introduction: In present business era, smart services adopt themselves according to market scenarios .As market scenarios are dynamic, so the design of the devices offering smart services should be flexible. This element of flexibility in the design of smart devices has inherent challenges in themselves which sometimes reduce the quality of service for the device. Nevertheless the advantages weigh over these minor challenges while deploying and using the smart devices. An emerging trend was set in military grounds by the Department of Defence (DoD), USA by making use of RFID tags at container level to supply the inventory products to minimize the lead time when demand was made.
