Abstract :
There are a lot of devices in ubiquitous environment and small sensors are also used at wide area. In such a ubiquitous environment, there is a lot of difficulty in using a new device if the new device is not discovered automatically. However, a lot of information can be used in the ubiquitous system if the system can discover a new device and use the information from it automatically. Nowadays, the middleware like an UPnP discovers the service between electronic devices but it does not fit for a small device like sensor. So, this paper proposes the auto discovery and installation algorithm of wearable bio signal devices in ubiquitous healthcare system.
