Abstract

This month's Works in Progress features eight projects that support the integration of user-generated content (UGC) in a world of pervasive communications. The projects range from AI-based UGC service discovery in the first essay to a semantically enriched information model that communication systems can use to deploy UGC in pervasive applications in the last essay. Other projects leverage the growing ubiquity of camera-equipped mobile phones, a global architecture that enriches hosted service-layer applications with user-generated contextual information, a mobile tourist-service application supporting tourism as a social activity, a prototype interactive digital TV application, and an access-control framework that captures information dynamically generated by customers of multiservice business areas.
