Title
A context-aware service model based on workflows for u-agriculture
Abstract
In agricultural processes, many works may need to be automated, because those are very hard labors or time-consuming jobs for farmers. Workflow technologies, which have successfully been a good model for a service automation in various computing environments, can be used as a possible service automation model in agriculture. A workflow for u-agriculture may need various contexts sensed from real sensor networks for service automation. Recently, many researches have applied workflow technologies into the various fields such as smart home, u-health care, u-city, u-port, and u-agriculture. However, many current workflow service have difficulty to control work processes and execute services according to context information in u-agricultural environment. This paper proposes a context-aware service model for u-agriculture, which is based on workflows and is aimed at supporting smart workflow services based on ubiquitous sensor networks in u-agriculture. With the proposed context-aware service model, developers can easily integrate various service demands into a service workflow, and can easily develop a context-aware workflow service for u-agriculture. Therefore, the proposed service model can be greatly helpful in the development of smart applications or the work automation in the fields of u-agriculture.
