“…For example, systems such as [17,4,5] can only obtain the encounters of people, but not the user's position. Other systems such as IBM's RFID system [25] and Yuusuke's system [19], are only concerned about whether a person is in a session room, and are not able to get the exact location of the user. Conference proximity analysis has been studied in the literature.…”

Location-based mobile applications such as Foursquare and Jiepang help bridge the gap between offline and online. People that we encounter and connect with around physical resources such as conferences, provide opportunities for extending our social networks from offline to online. We give a preliminary study on the relationship between the online and physical social networks in terms of the online and offline interactions (O2O) established during the conference, using a mobile social proximity-based platform called Find & Connect. We propose metrics of overlap fraction, network scale, and O2O transfer amount to quantify the O2O behavior of conference attendees. Our results demonstrate that more than half of the online interactions are included in the offline interaction network, and the offline to online transfer holds the dominant position in this bidirectional O2O transition between online and offline interaction networks. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to study the influence of offline to online, and vice versa, in a restricted environment using a social proximity-based system.

Abstract:We propose to extend standard Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) usage by storing semantically annotated data within RFID tags memory, so that objects may actually 'describe themselves' in a variety of scenarios. In particular here we exploit our approach to carry out an advanced matchmaking process using metadata stored in RFIDs. A 'fully backward compatible' modification to the original RFID data exchange protocol is presented, allowing to implement an advanced resource discovery framework. A compression algorithm specifically devised to ease embedding of annotated DIG description is also proposed. Motivations and benefits of the approach are outlined in a tracking of agricultural and food products case study.Keywords: RFID; Semantic Web; matchmaking; pervasive computing.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Ruta, M., Di Noia, T., Di Sciascio, E., Scioscia, F. and Piscitelli, G.

We present a novel resource discovery framework for u-commerce. Both the original RFID data exchange protocol and the Bluetooth Service Discovery Protocol have been extended in order to enable support for the semantic annotation of products and goods. Given a request, the approach we propose allows an enhanced discovery process exploiting the semantics of resource descriptions available in a u-marketplace. The enhancement is backward compatible with both the original discovery protocols, thus allowing the smooth coexistence of the resource discovery and/or identification approaches. We present and motivate our approach in an innovative u-commerce framework, and show its benefits.
