User-Centric Intelligent Context-Aware System for Realizing Internet of Things Environments

In the Internet of Things (IoT), platforms are being built that are capable of developing various services and delivering services to users through connection technology between various objects and sensors. However, the information provided on these platforms focuses on the state of objects and environments. It predicts the user's situation and does not provide intelligent services suitable for the current situation at the user's location. Future IoT needs a service that senses changes in various environments, controls each object, and recognizes a user-centered seamless situation. This paper proposes a dynamic mesh-type network configuration technique for analyzing the real-time situation of users and providing seamless services. We propose a mechanism to understand the user behavior and the surrounding environment through a network configured to recognize a user-centered situation. The parking lot system was simulated to evaluate the performance of the situational awareness system. The method applied to the parking lot system was compared with the best effort method and the situational awareness system proposed in this paper.
