Local Positioning Systems for Mobile Devices based on Ontology

Honghao Gao, Shuoping Wang and Hongquan Lu
In order to get services continuity and integrity in wide range of pervasive environments for mobile computing devices, Local Positioning Systems (LPS), recognized as the key prerequisite of dependability for many fundamental network services, has attracted a lot of research efforts in recent years. This study attempts to propose a method, based on Ontology using Jena to implement the context awareness technology, for local positioning systems to facilitate effective communications and service applications. First of all, the study introduces Local Positioning Systems in relation to the modern daily life and then the paper expounds on the context-related elements in the locating process. Secondly, the semantic by formal method based on Ontology for efficient application of services is analyzed. Thirdly, the paper proposes a model for mobile devices and gives a connective workflow example. In conclusion, the experiments show that the proposed approach is an improvement to conventional practices.
