ABSTRACT
Although location-based reminder applications have been widely prototyped, there are few results regarding their impact on people: how are they used, do they change people’s behavior and what features influence usefulness the most. Cell phones provide a compelling platform for the delivery of location-based reminders within a user 's everyday natural context. We present requirements for location-based reminders resulting from a qualitative study performed at small area in the city, and elaborate how these results are influencing ongoing design of a more comprehensive location-based reminder system. In this paper we propose an architecture of location based services which uses GPS. Within the architecture, we discuss the challenges for context management, service trigger mechanism and preference-based services.

INTRODUCTION

The main purpose of location-based services is to provide services to customers based on the knowledge of their locations. Examples of these services include real-time traffic information, digital map services which are delivered to mobile terminals according to user’s location to minimize data transmission, providing dynamic guidance services according to the users’ location and current traffic condition; requesting the nearest business or service(e.g., the nearest restaurant or cinema) and location based advertising (like “Send ecoupons to all cars that are

    Personal Navigation Devices provide geolocation maps, turn-by-turn directions, and sometimes real-time traffic and weather updates. In addition to helping users get from point A to point B without having to rummage around in their glove box for a paper map PND’s have the added benefits of being affordable and easy to use. Users are able to enter desired destinations several different ways; inputting a specific address, choosing a pre-programmed destination, or by choosing a point of interest (i.e. shopping, food etc.) Although many of today’s smart phones offer the same technology, PND’s have the advantage of larger screens and louder speakers not to mention keeping your phone free for important calls.…

    There are so many modern conveniences in the world today, one of them is being able to reach anyone and any moment of the day. With cell phones, or more commonly “smart phones” we can fit dictionaries, video games, applications, and even social interaction into our pocket. The first “cell phone” was made in 1946 by AT&T, weighed about three pounds, and was only able to make three calls in one city simultaneously. Calls had to be manually set up by an operator and you would usually have to wait about 30 minutes to place a call. Today our pocket sized gadgets connect to cell towers automatically and connect us with people around the world in about 30 seconds. Everywhere you turn you will find cell phones and other social…

    Geolocation has truly made an impact on the world. In the past, individuals used to print out their directions and used paper to tell them where to go. The only problem with this is that you could potentially lose the paper or if you wanted to do add a route onto it, there was no possible way because you wouldn’t have access to the Internet. Now with the onslaught of Smartphones, tablets, etc. you can plug in your information and your current location is already saved on the server. You are able to find your current location on your mobile device by the GPS chip that is installed on them. The GPS chip is where all of the data is stored, sent, and received. Smartphones, tablet, and Internet devices all should have GPS chips within their systems. The iPhone and “The iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G models do have built-in GPS chips that receive signals from the global GPS satellite system to determine your location - as closely as three meters, depending the number of satellite signals the chip is receiving. GPS in the iPad 2 is classed as assisted GPS, also known as AGPS, which enhances the performance of standard GPS in devices connected to Wi-Fi or the cellular network. The iPad 2 W-Fi + 3G may be used for the full range of apps that require detailed location information wherever you may be…

For those living with Dementia and Alzheimer's, memory loss is not the only symptom. These individuals can also experience confusion, along with many other symptoms, which can make their memory loss even more alarming. This piece of assistive technology is a badge that can be clipped to the clothing of the individual with memory loss to alert an alarm if the badge gets to far away from the phone that it is connected to. For example, if the badge is clipped onto the lapel, collar, or waist of an individual with Alzheimer's Disease and they leave the home that they are in, an alarm on the phone that the badge is connected to will sound. This device is connected via bluetooth to a caregiver's device so that an alarm goes off if the badge goes beyond the pre-set distance, that is set by whomever has control of the…

    Over this past weekend, when given the challenge to shut off my phone for 24 hours, I didn’t believe I could make it. My phone is probably involved in almost every activity I do throughout the day. Weather its taking notes down for my classes or tweeting my latest pointless thought. It guides me when its dark, tells me when its going to rain, and even notifies me when I get poked on Facebook. I can honestly admit to being one of those people who are completely dependent on their phones. Knowing this about myself I had to factor in three important variables; what day, what am I going to do, & of course how will I notify people of my whereabouts!…

    This would be in a way helpful because it could spark ideas on where to eat if in a large group. The opposition however thinks this is a bad idea in that you are allowing not just the wireless carriers to know your location but also the advertisers (Haskin). Both point out the fact that the carriers should offer something back or a discounted rate if you allow them to send you advertisements. The main way that advertisers are doing this is through the use of text messages and now, as phones and the services that come with them grow to be more advanced, the advertising tactics do as well.…
