This paper discusses the function and form of location-aware computing based on the ubiquitous computing.

The location sensing system (also called positioning system) is an underlying component for location-aware computing in Smart Space, which not only demands the location sensing system to locate multiple objects with desirable precision, but also superimposes the requirements, such as directional characteristic and portability etc, on it.

The conventional representation of location information is hard to understand for human in location-aware computing,but the natural language is a beneficial supplement.

The importance of Location-aware Computing has been widely acknowledged as the groundwork and paradigm for the Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing.

Indoor Location-aware of Ubiquitous Computing;

We present Genius, a novel peer-to-peer location-aware gossip.

Through the analysis of several location-aware technologies commonly used recen.

Proactive location-awareness service model for smart space;

A new location awareness algorithm,called Alternating Combination Quadrilateration(ACQ),is presented for three-dimensional deployment.

In the paper, MDS is used to derive node locations that fit those estimated distances, and a smart space oriented location awareness method (SSOLA) is proposed, which can position all the nodes of the networks accurately only by means of the connectivity information—who is within communications range of whom.
