Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process-based inter-thing collaboration apparatus and method in a Web of Things (WoT) environment, which can perform dynamic collaboration between things in a WoT environment. The presented apparatus includes an inter-thing collaboration design tool unit for designing an Inter-Thing Collaboration Process (ITCP) based on information of things including a device, a service, and a process, and an inter-thing collaboration management unit for dynamically configuring an inter-thing collaboration community based on context information of the things, and executing the ITCP designed by the inter-thing collaboration design tool unit.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: a touchscreen having a front touchscreen region and at least one side touchscreen region, the side touchscreen region being integrally formed with the front touchscreen region; and a body to which the touchscreen is attached. In one such electronic device, an application program corresponding to a side icon on the side touchscreen region is configured to be displayed on the front touchscreen region when the side icon is moved to an activation icon on the side touchscreen region by a drag-and-drop operation. In another such electronic device, an application program corresponding to a side icon on the side touchscreen region is configured to be displayed on the front touchscreen region when the side icon is moved to the front touchscreen region by a drag-and-drop operation.

Abstract: A mobile device includes a touch-screen having an external touch-screen region, an internal foldable touch-screen region, and a curved-surface touch-screen region that couples the external touch-screen region and the internal foldable touch-screen region, and a body to which the touch-screen is attached, wherein the device is configured to move at least one icon corresponding to at least one executing application program to the curved-surface touch-screen region in response to a folding angle of the internal foldable touch-screen region when a folding operation of the internal foldable touch-screen region is performed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for parallel mining of temporal relations in a large event file using a MapReduce model. In the method for parallel mining of temporal relations in a large even file according to the present invention, an event file is sorted based on customer identification (ID) and event time at which each event has occurred. A set of large event types satisfying a preset support or more is generated from the event file. The event file is converted into a large event sequence including the large event type set. The large event sequence is summarized and then a time interval data file is created. Candidate temporal relations are generated from the time interval data file, and frequent temporal relations satisfying a preset support or more are derived from the candidate temporal relations. A temporal relation rule is generated from the derived frequent temporal relations.
