00:48:32 RRSAgent has joined #ubiweb 00:48:32 logging to http://www.w3.org/2006/03/10-ubiweb-irc 00:48:53 Vincent Quint talking about content adaption in the ubiquitous web. 01:00:46 hallvors has joined #ubiweb 01:08:48 q: your distributed architecture diagram - transformation servers are valuable 01:09:04 karl has joined #ubiweb 01:09:08 or did you intend all the transformations to take place in the proxy? 01:09:36 a: the proxy will be used only when there isn't adequate transformation on one or the other side. 01:10:01 there may be more than one proxy and proxies may be specialized to different purposes. 01:10:19 Dave, do you want to record the name of the commenter? 01:10:33 ok 01:11:24 q: (Johan) the device description problem is much high in the SIP community, what is the reason you only focus on HTTP? 01:12:00 a: most clients are using http, but I am not claiming that all clients must use http, especially for streaming media. 01:12:27 rrsagent, make log public 01:12:43 it is fine now 01:12:58 Johan: SIP offers more negotiation possibilities than http and that expands the architecture. 01:13:31 Kangchan has joined #ubiweb 01:14:03 q: (Liddy) search for proxies to handle specific transformations is also important 01:14:21 I am also concerned about privacy for user/device profiles. 01:15:25 a: profiles can also be stored on the device and passed to the proxy upon demand. 01:16:09 In answer to the first question, I mentioned about DI Select and other means to make the transformation sensitive to the context. 01:16:54 q: (Don R) are you aware of any device profiles that you can use? 01:17:53 a: the adaptation may not provide sufficient information via http. 01:18:27 q: are there any public repositories of device information? 01:19:02 a: yes there are some. 01:19:45 Dave notes that the is an open source repository and W3C's MWI is working on the APIs and mechanisms to support repositories. 01:20:33 q: doesn't the descriptions need to cover rules for what transformations are appropriate 01:21:06 q: why do you need to negotiate, why not just send everything? 01:21:15 a: it is too much 01:22:59 Dave thanks Vincent 01:23:04 (applause) 01:24:28 Reto Krummenacher presents on triple spaces for a ubiquitous web of services. 01:33:22 q: this is a distributed blackboard, right? 01:33:47 a: yes, but we are combining with the Semantic Web as semantic databases. 01:35:25 The sematic web will enable the combining of large amounts of distributed information. 01:40:14 q: I am curious as to why it is called triple spaces? 01:40:55 a: the first idea was to combine RDF and tuple space, RDF uses triples, hence triple space. 01:41:11 alternative names include semantic space. 01:42:06 q: (Franklin) in tuple spaces you can change values, is that the intent, to allow you to navigate and make changes? 01:42:35 a: currently we publish RDF graphs and consuming them. 01:44:01 (shows additional slide with write, read, take, query operations) 01:47:41 rrsagent, pointer 01:47:41 See http://www.w3.org/2006/03/10-ubiweb-irc#T01-47-41 01:48:23 Dave, I'm not sure why, but yesterday's log was: http://www.w3.org/2006/03/08-ubiweb-irc 01:59:42 It's because RRSAgent gets the time based on GMT, so if you live in Japan or Australia it gets confused about the date. 01:59:55 s/GMT/GMT or Boston time or something/ 02:16:07 Presentation from University of Deusto. 02:25:48 [http://www.w3.org/2006/03/08-ubiweb-minutes] 02:34:26 q: (Johan) what about scalability, have you tested with more than a few nodes? 02:35:11 a: we want to expand the range of scenarios to address that. 02:35:49 the centralized nature of the orchestrator is also a weakness of the current approach that we would like to address 02:36:05 q: (Franklin) have you tested for usability? 02:36:15 mimasa has joined #ubiweb 02:36:18 a: not formally as yet. 02:37:23 q: you showed us a diagram for time vs number of APs. can you explain it? 02:38:25 a: constraint processing can take time due to its cost ... 02:39:26 q: can you give me an example of reasoning for adaptation? 02:41:01 a: a rule that knows that if you are in a given room then you are in a given building with a given location 02:41:31 Johan Hjelm presents "building the ubiquitous applications environment" 02:48:04 hallvors has joined #ubiweb 03:11:06 q: (Reto) is there a website for SPiCE? 03:11:11 a: not yet 03:12:40 q: (Franklin) your project is addressing a number of security related desires. But aren't there real usability problems for configuring that? 03:13:41 a: we are using some widgets to simplify this, and one approach is based on sets and another is based upon recipe cards 03:14:14 a third technique is based upon constructing a matrix 03:16:10 people don't want comprehensive solutions, and prefer solutio 03:16:23 solutions to particular problems instead. 03:18:26 q: (Dave) can you show us an example of policy language for privacy management? 03:18:35 a: not right now, see the website. 03:19:11 q: for fuzzy properties have you consided machine learning for understanding the context (e.g. for nearness)? 03:19:14 a: yes 03:19:25 we are using bayesian techniques for this. 03:26:28 Scribe: karl 03:26:50 Topic: Break out session 03:27:18 Chaals: is the semantic web a too heavy approach to a context of small devices? 03:27:32 ... The SW might be too hard or overkill. 03:27:55 ... but in other way, it helps to maximize interoperability 03:28:25 ... what is the middle ground? 03:28:59 dave: I think you have to go back to use cases to be able to find the relevant technologies. 03:30:08 Johan: One of the issues is that people add a lot of things when discussed about their desires. So you end up with a universal knowledge representation system. 03:30:53 ... It's not a context representation problem. You should not start by representing everything, but more by representing small things available to you and then create your context. 03:31:17 ... Users don't create ontologies. They want something which solves their problem. 03:32:38 Karl: RDF is a way of representing things. People create folksonomies that are dynamic ontologies, but there is no value in a big framework that requires people to build their ontologies beforehand... 03:33:54 dave: there are people who make money from building ontologies. But yes we could have an approach were many people annotate things, give information 03:34:17 Johan: The issue is how to represent the user. 03:34:57 ... The problem is how to find something which is relevant, or appropriate for the user which is middle ground. 03:35:05 dave: example of use cases 03:35:15 JOhan: Footbal games ? 03:38:09 Hirotaka has joined #ubiweb 03:38:23 herve_ has joined #ubiweb 03:38:27 karlUshi has joined #ubiweb 03:38:51 quint has joined #ubiweb 03:39:07 Reto_ has joined #ubiweb 03:39:10 [12:33] dave: there are people who make money from building ontologies.

The problem is how to find something which is relevant, or appropriate for the user which is middle ground. 03:39:17 [12:35] dave: example of use cases 03:39:19 [12:35] JOhan: Footbal games ? 03:39:21 [12:35] * karl is missing the articulation of Johan 03:39:23 [12:36] Johan: we transmitted files as CSV files because it was a lot faster than RDF files 03:39:25 [12:37] SpeakerX: Use RDF when you need, or XML, or text. It really depends on the context of your use. 03:40:12 dave: question_missed 03:41:02 Satoru has joined #ubiweb 03:43:34 UEDA has joined #ubiweb 03:43:45 Reto has joined #ubiweb 03:44:06 karl has joined #ubiweb 03:44:21 quint_ has joined #ubiweb 03:44:23 herve_ has joined #ubiweb 03:44:26 dave: something interesting this morning 03:44:36 ... was the notion of annotation for devices 03:44:42 ... what is needed for annotations 03:45:33 Satoru has joined #ubiweb 03:45:54 Johan: it's not only about having to send your data, but also the status of interaction between devices. A negotiation future protocol should include this? 03:46:01 SpeakerA: yes 03:47:05 Johan: when negotiation is happening, there should be the possibility of dealing with multiple events, so a notification system 03:47:52 Kazuyuki has joined #ubiweb 03:48:04 dave: multimodal context interface are dealing with this. Type of papers, quantity etc. 03:48:20 SpeakerA: The mechanism needs to be exposed 03:49:09 chibao has joined #ubiweb 03:49:35 dave: that comes back to what kind of mechanism and languages you should use for that. 03:50:08 DonWright: All of these problems have been solved 03:50:15 ... but not on a large scale basis 03:50:31 dave: web services? 03:51:04 DonWright: it's too hard to do. Not too hard in the sense in writing of the software, but too hard in terms of deployment. 03:51:26 ... problems of firewall, problems of physical structures of companies 03:51:28 ... etc. 03:51:59 dave: what about admin costs? 03:52:02 hallvors has joined #ubiweb 03:52:18 DonWright: many companies have proposed this kind of business but none has been successful 03:52:25 ... because of the deployment issue 03:53:09 SpeakerA: The status of events is not always relevant. 03:53:55 dave: what kind of apis, web services, ontologies (common vocabularies) should be built to deal with this? 03:55:15 03:56:39 Kangchan has joined #ubiweb 04:32:48 Satoru has joined #ubiweb 04:38:06 Satoru has joined #ubiweb 04:43:23 Satoru has joined #ubiweb 04:48:46 Satoru has joined #ubiweb 04:52:34 herve_ has joined #ubiweb 04:59:01 scribe: karl 04:59:06 chaals has joined #ubiweb 04:59:12 RRSAgent, help 04:59:30 herve has joined #ubiweb 05:00:04 RRSAgent, bookmark 05:00:04 See http://www.w3.org/2006/03/10-ubiweb-irc#T05-00-04 05:01:03 Dave has joined #ubiweb 05:01:07 Topic: Lower case ubiquitous web architecture and its implementations by Satoru Takagi 05:01:54 Satoru: establishment of ubiquitous computing environment as social features 05:02:12 ...

That's the same for security. 07:08:06 ... but right now each vendor is doing its own framework with not a lot of interop 07:08:23 ... we would like to promote interop in security. 07:08:51 ... The securities policies of browsers vendors are different 07:09:04 ... even if the techniques are quite similar. 07:09:37 ... we are about to cooperate on this. But it's a complex work 07:10:17 dave: pop up messages are really an issue for all kind of devices. 07:10:53 chaals: yes it's an issue.

If the W3C should do something, what should be addressed. 07:40:21 ... We haven't scratched enough the surface to know what we want to do. 07:40:47 ... It's a very interesting workshop.

There is no special WG for mobile 07:47:00 ... but they care of doing the things right for mobile. 07:47:11 Dave: it's the case for many WGs. 07:47:19 chaals: To an extent yes 07:47:33 ... Don't make more mobile groups 07:47:47 ... make more technology which are mobile friendly. 07:48:02 Johan: Good problems definition helps a lot in this case. 07:48:45 ... Activities which don't have a good problem definitions, for example, Mobile Best Practices, and Device Independence and Device description WG. 07:49:07 ... some WGs at W3C have overlapping agendas. 07:49:29 Don: To some extent, I will agree with Johan and chaals 07:49:50 ... we spent a lot of time on mobile but not on non traditional devices. 07:52:10 sakakura has joined #ubiweb 07:53:23 herve_ has joined #ubiweb 07:53:30 Reto has joined #ubiweb 07:53:52 karlLapUshi has joined #ubiweb 07:54:14 I dropped again 07:54:24 quint_ has joined #ubiweb 07:55:06 Karl: maybe we should try to coordinate more inside W3C, maybe an outcome of Workshop would be to create a big picture, identify technologies 07:55:07 chaals has joined #ubiweb 07:55:14 ... and their interactions. 07:55:27 Retallack: Is there one world wide web? 07:56:06 chaals: one of the thing we didn't the network info-structure 07:56:30 ... we build browsers on many different info-structures: phone, web, aircraft, etc. 07:56:44 Kangchan has joined #ubiweb 07:57:05 ...
