cyberworld inside you rlife


Originally the word “cybernetics” is associated with the study of control and communication in living and artificial made systems. The word itself comes from Greek's kubernan, to govern. In the latest developments there are separated disciplines like artificial intelligence, neural networks, systems theory, and chaos theory, but the boundaries between those and cybernetics has not yet been properly defined. In this paper, the word “cyber” is associated with the world of intra-communication and networked devices, a world of advanced technology used for a better human interaction and information. Cyberworld can be defined as a virtual world, a parallel world created and sustained by the world’s computers, wearable communication terminals and deviceless interfaces. In the Cyberworld we can stay in touch with our agents, knowledge databases, communities, and use electronic services and transactions.

The Cyberworld, as defined within the reference model provided by Wireless Strategic Initiative project (WSI), deals with the integration of application functionality in real and virtual environment. It can be classified by five well-defined components, namely: Presence, Identity, Interaction, Application and Cyberhost. Each of the components is then detailed further to have the predominant features and/or subcomponents

the Cyberworld building block has been achieved successfully. The Cyberworld reference model expressively describes the interactions and relationships among the essential Cyberworld components. Value functions are emphasized by placing them on top of the reference model. The reference model implementation is then briefly described which needs to be attended to carefully at each stage. At the end of the paper a few Cyberworld technologies/technology enablers are identified and clustered to form a Cyberworld technology roadmap.

Future research in wireless world modeling includes refining or sub-modeling of other three building blocks of WSI reference model. The Cyberworld reference model will be applied on some typical mobile scenarios to demonstrate and get a better understanding of pros and cons of the model. The corresponding Cyberworld technologies also need to be looked into within a 10-year time framework.
