Location-aware UPnP AV session manager for smart home

In this paper, we design a location-aware UPnP AV session manager. This system automatically detects a user's movement using RFID technology, and then captures or restores his UPnP A/V session information by invoking service actions defined in the UPnP AV architecture. The designed system is based on RFID-based multi-user access control algorithm to reduce both service transition time from a person in service to another person, and unnecessary processing time, by filtering invalid tags.
