Abstract

Ubiquitous computing refers to building a global computing environment where seamless and invisible access to computing resources is provided to users. The successful application of pervasive services relies on its ability to provide efficient and cost-effective QoS (Quality of Service) support. This paper introduces a service selection approach based on QoS and user preferences. Simulations have been conducted and preliminary results are reported to show the usefulness and the importance of using QoS and user preferences in service selection process.
