1 CRUMPET CReation of User-friendly Mobile services PErsonalised for Tourism Stefan Poslad, Heimo Laamanen, Sasu Tarkoma Co-ordinator: More at CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 1 of 25

2 Presentation Outline Introduction to CRUMPET FIPA NAS implementation Open source micro-fipa platform Closing remarks CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 2 of 25

3 Project Objectives CRUMPET is an EU IST 5th framework project It has two main objectives: To implement and trial context-aware tourismrelated services for nomadic users context-aware: location and personalisation across mobile & fixed networks To evaluate agent technology as a suitable approach for fast creation of robust, scalable, seamlessly accessible nomadic services CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 3 of 25

4 Project background Partners QMUL (CO), Emorphia Ltd, Nortel Networks, EML, GMD, PTIN, Sonera Corporation, University of Helsinki Combines Tourism + IT to support user nomadicity Tourism 2 phases of trials, real content from tourist boards IT: a fusion of several techniques Personalised services, location-awareness, multi-media content over wireless Agents are used to integrate all of these CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 4 of 25

5 etourism Multi-purpose trip not just tourism, also business Reduced pre-planning lack of time etc When information is accessed pre-planned vs. destination-based vs. hybrid What information is accessed about the destination relation of the destination to the current location Individualised information Relation of personal preferences to a location CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 5 of 25

6 Context-aware services! Personalised information! Aids the information fit to the terminal! Acquire the user info. by active, passive means! Location information! Info: maps, routes, positions, service points, sites, events, assets, directories, demographics,..! Applications: JIT info., find an asset, tourism! Available to anyone, anywhere, anytime, on any device! Standards: OpenGIS lower layer & value-added layer CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 6 of 25

16 MicroFIPA-OS An open-source agent execution environment for small and wireless devices by the University of Helsinki The small foot-print platform is based upon the current version of FIPA-OS Deployment of FIPA-OS agents on small devices Runs on most of today s middle/high-level PDAs with PersonalJava support CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 16 of 25

17 Features MicroFIPA-OS supports a number of agents on the small device It is able to host a full FIPA platform and execute AMS and DF on the terminal Support for FIPA-OS tasks and conversations Transport architecture Optimized and enhanced for local (within terminal) agent communication CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 17 of 25

18 Compatibility (Device. & Op Sys.) MicroFIPA-OS operating systems: runs on PocketPC, EPOC and LINUX Devices include: Compaq ipaq H3600-series Cassiopeia E115, Psion Series 5mx Many other devices.. MicroFIPA-OS is PersonalJava compatible PJava is a subset of JDK 1.1 for PDAs. PJava is supported in the J2ME with the Personal profile CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 18 of 25

19 Deployment scenarios Terminal Agents MicroFIPA-OS Internal transport Agent platform AMS, DF, agents FIPA-OS (ACC, router) Internal transport Agent Platform on the terminal AMS,DF,Agents MicroFIPA-OS FIPA specified transport Agent platform AMS, DF, agents FIPA-OS (ACC) FIPA specified transport CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 19 of 25

20 Memory and performance Currently takes maximum of 470KB (full FIPA-OS functionality). Size can be reduced by removing parsers and other components. Runtime memory requirement depends on the runtime environment For example: 3.5 MB on JRE1.1.8 on ipaq (VM+MFOS+agent) Local message delivery approx. 30ms on ipaq with JDK CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 20 of 25

21 Performance AMS registration (ms) ipaq local ipaq ext. PC local PC ext. PC FIPAOS RMI Benchmarking on ipaq and AMD 800MHz on JDK Avg. SD CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 21 of 25

22 Closing remarks Market being addressed by CRUMPET is location-aware, personalised tourism services for nomadic users this is potentially a huge market Agents provide universal rich communication mechanism coupled with adaptivity and proactivity to support this CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 22 of 25

23 Project Status Project Status (July 2001 ~ 1/3) Micro-FIPA-OS: pre-release, May 2001; full release in August 2001 fixed network agents,service agents and terminal agents in alpha testing First trials (Heidelberg) September 2001 NAS CRUMPET development complete November 2001, we will then maintain it w.r.t any FIPA NAS changes Second set of (multi-city) trials in 2002 CRUMPET Sendai, Japan 23 of 25
