Interest Profile

The rapid growth of Global Positioning System (GPS) and availability of real-time Geo-located data allow the mobile devices to provide information which leads towards the Location Based Services (LBS). The need for providing suggestions to personals about the activities of their interests, the LBS contributing more effectively to this purpose. Recommendation system (RS) is one of the most effective and efficient features that has been initiated by the LBS. Our proposed system is intended to design a recommendation system that will provide suggestions to the user and also find a suitable place for a group of users and it is according to their preferred type of places. In our work, we propose the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN) algorithm for clustering the check-in spots of the user’s and user-based Collaborative Filtering (CF) to find similar users as we are considering constructing an interest profile for each user. We also introduced a grid-based structure to present the Point of Interest (POI) into a map. Finally, similarity calculation is done to make the recommendations. We evaluated our system on real world users and acquired the F-measure score on average 0.962 and 0.964 for a single user and for a group of user respectively. We also observed that our system provides effective recommendations for a single user as well as for a group of users.

Wireless communication has become important in location-based services. The enormous amount of data is extracted for useful information to solve the real world problem. Global positioning system, is used to captures the position of an object at specific time period. The scheme is finding the congested route by considering the number of vehicles in a road segment. It consists of two methods, firstly it finds the group of points based on consistency of route points and second it arranges the groups in sequence of values for each route

Users rely increasingly on Location-Based Services (LBS) and automated navigation/guidance systems nowadays. However, while such services are easily implemented in outdoor environments using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, a requirement still exists for accurate localization and guidance schemes in indoor settings. Accordingly, the present study proposes a system based on GPS, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons, and Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. Through establishing graphic information and the design of algorithm, this study develops a guidance system for indoors and outdoors on smart phones, wishing to give user perfect smart life through this system. The proposed system is implemented on a smart phone and evaluated on a student campus environment. The experimental results confirm the ability of the proposed app to switch automatically from an outdoor mode to an indoor mode and to guide the user to requested target destination via the shortest possible route.

Positioning Method

Location Based Services (LBS) has gained increasing popularity in major cities. Due to blocking from man-made structures, the existing Global Positioning System (GPS) could not satisfy LBS applications, especially in street canyon and indoor surroundings. This has lead to the development of Assisted GPS (A-GPS) which can provide better service availability and accuracy gain. In the conventional positioning method, Taylor series expansion is applied to solve non-linear distance equations. This method requires an initial estimation of A-GPS receiver’s position. This paper investigates the positioning method for LBS based on hybrid E-OTD/GNSS. The proposed positioning method is non-Taylor series based. Therefore, it involves less complicated mathematical expansion and substitution. A flexible LBS positioning tool is developed which can generate position information in convenient way. It supports both Taylor series and non-Taylor series based positioning methods. The obtained results showed that the proposed non-Taylor series based positioning method can achieve better positioning accuracy.

ABSTRACTGiven the increase in global positioning system enabled devices and the ubiquitous ability to connect wirelessly to information through location-based services, organizations are challenged to offer privacy-by-design support systems. Given this, we offer a conceptual framework to capture the impact of the individual component weights of concern for information privacy on behavioral intent of disclosing information. Through a sample of 217 respondents, our PLS model shows that privacy protection beliefs negatively impact concern for collection, unauthorized use, and improper access of information and that privacy risk beliefs positively impact concern for collection and existence of errors; additionally, concern for collection negatively impacts behavioral intentions to disclose information, as does concern for unauthorized use. With such detailed information, firms can address both cognitive and affective consumer concerns, enhance transparency, and communicate multiple services while handling privacy controls as an extension of those services.

Late arrival of help in emergency situation like road accident can lead a person to death. Getting the help depends on time required to alert the helper. There are many Location Based Services available in today’s smartphones that are usually used for the applications like navigation, travelling and many of the commercial applications. Many of the location based services are also in the field of emergency alert system, but each of them needs the human intervention. If the victim gets in the emergency situation like road accident and no help is available, and at the same time if he is not able to make call for help then the things get worst. In such situation the victim can only rely for help on the helper to whom he trusts, because usually the nearby people do not take the responsibility of the situation like road accident which is known as “bystandereffect”. Smart Call System (SCS) is the intellectual call system which will automatically alert the user’s helper without the user intervention. This will be made possible by using the Global Positioning System (GPS), Pull and Push services. Thus the help can be provided to the victim through the SCS.

Intellectual assistant in a location based service (LBS) is considered here as assistive technology in healthcare system for helping users with sensory, physical or intellectual diminished capabilities. The proposed system has the speculative computation module which helps in orientation for predicting the users’ error and alerting them for ensuring a true traveling direction well in advance for the handicapped people of mild to moderate condition of disability in earlier phases of cognitive disabilities. A person with cognitive impairments has the Trajectory (T) associated with them which is a sequenced set of past global positioning system (GPS) points. The implementation and evaluation of the trajectory data mining method have been done for the purpose of achieving the travel route to the user preferences. For the simulation of proposed system, a client server queuing model has been used. The results show the minimization of the overhead with better precision as compared to earlier existing path guiding systems.

Mobile Market

<p>In the advancing world of technology, Mobile applications are a rapidly growing segment of the global mobile market. Mobile applications are evolving at a meteor pace to give users a rich and fast user experience. Android operating system supports most applications in today’s technical world. It is an open source operating system which highly satisfies the user’s needs. In this paper, the applications that are location based i.e. the applications that make use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) is discussed. It is a space based satellite navigation system which provides details of time and location in all weather conditions anywhere on or near earth. We introduce PROFILER, a framework for constructing location centric profiles (LCPs), aggregates built over the profiles of users that have visited discrete locations. In addition to a venue centric approach, we propose a decentralized solution for computing real time LCP snapshots over the profiles of collocated users. In our System we find the corresponding location using Global Positioning and Service Provider also. This is to change the profile mode automatically and alarm notification enable automatically when you are going to reach corresponding location or Regular Location.</p>
