Abstract
Increase of future appliances in the home environment causes confusion with less computer-skilled users. Consequently, embedded-hardware could prevent us from recognizing all of them by ourselves. Furthermore, wireless connection among embedded devices also makes users not have a clear grasp of which kind of application is running among them. This kind of user unawareness should make the rate of embedded ubiquitous systems into the home slow. To overcome the abovementioned issues, we have developed uBlocks which enables visual hand-made composition of software component applications among heterogeneous devices by users themselves.
