Abstract:
Provided is a method of managing content using a visual expression, the method including: determining a visual icon that represents each of contents registered by users, based on the respective contents; quantizing each of a plurality of visual icons to map each of the plurality of visual icons with at least one level among a plurality of predetermined quantization levels; generating a content unit corresponding to each of the plurality of visual icons based on the mapping result; and creating smart content that is a visual expression as abstract information corresponding to a combination of the contents, based on a combination of content units.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of providing an optimal service to a user using personal information of the user, the method including: decentralizing and thereby setting personal information of the user that is included in a user description; extracting the personal information of the user from the user description; receiving a service request of the user and the extracted personal information of the user; selecting service information from a service description including the service information that is supported for the user, based on the personal information of the user in response to the service request of the user; and providing a service corresponding to the service information to the user.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a virtual world processing apparatus. The virtual world processing apparatus includes a gas sensor unit and an engine. The gas sensor unit obtains scent information in the real world. The engine receives information about the capabilities of the gas sensor unit from the gas sensor unit, and transmits the scent information obtained by the sensor unit to a virtual world or the real world.
Abstract:
A method for representing a terrain, a method for creating terrain primitives, and an apparatus using the methods are disclosed. The terrain representation method includes: reading digital elevation model (DEM) data of a terrain; extracting feature points of the terrain from the DEM data of the terrain; creating a plurality of terrain primitives according to the feature points of the terrain; storing terrain representation model data based on the plurality of terrain primitives; and converting the terrain primitive based terrain representation model data into DEM data, and visualizing the DEM data.
Abstract:
A method of providing a service using a user description, a service description, and a contents description may include: receiving first user information from a first user description including first user information; receiving environment information from the contents description including environment information; selecting optimal service information from the service description including service information based on at least one of the first user information and the environment information; and providing a service corresponding to the selected optimal service information to a first user.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of managing contents in a social networking service, the method including storing information about each of a plurality of users participating in the social networking service, in a table structured based on a predetermined syntax, receiving a search request from a first user among the plurality of users, providing the first user with contents owned by a second user, as a search result corresponding to the search request, by referring to the structured table, receiving an additional search request from the first user, and providing the first user with additional contents owned by the second user, as a search result corresponding to the search request, by referring to the structured table.
