사용자 상황기반 검색을 통해 웹상의 상점정보를 지도상에 계층적으로 제공하는 엠비언트 서비스 모델 = An Ambient Service Model for Providing Web's Stores Information on Map Interface Hierarchically through User-Context-Based Search

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Users often visit many stores while comparing the products for purchasing products or products related to it. Given a service providing location information of these stores, users can make their purchase efficiently because of reducing the time and effort they spent for wandering around and obtaining new purchase opportunities by knowing a kind of relevant stores near there. In this paper, for the purpose of providing relevant stores information efficiently, we suggest an Ambient Service Model that consists of three layers: "structured(purchase-related) information space", "real space", and "ambient information space". In the model, stores information collected from the web is grouped and structured automatically by relationships in terms of purchase. And users search relevant stores information by using an Ambient Query that is created by their context in real space. Finally, users obtain relevant stores information that is in the form of hierarchy structure on map interface. Then, users can search other kinds of relevant stores information additionally by using hierarchy structure. Consequently, It is possible to develope a service that users can obtain relevant stores information intuitively without complex search processes through the model. Also, we expect that the model can be used for developing services that provide objects information related to various objects besides stores.
