Subject: [SS WG] Smart-M3 Projects Developed @ UNIBO

Dear Collegues,

following a list of two interesting projects students have been developed 
during the last Smart-M3 Lab course at UNIBO:

1) PHP KPI
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sm3-php-kpi-lib/

This is a contribution of a student team from the University of Bologna (Second 
faculty of Engineering, Cesena). The aim of this demonstration is to present a 
PHP library to allow any device equipped with a web-browser to connect and 
interact remotely with Smart-M3 based Smart Spaces. The PHP library has been 
created refactoring the Java source code of the KP Interface, following the 
same core logic and creating the PHP classes that implement the same methods 
with the same interface. The library is similar to its counterparts developed 
in Java and C#. It is structured into two classes: KPICore and SSAP_XMLTOOLS. 
The former is used to communicate with the SIB (i.e. it manages sockets and it 
exposes the SSAP primitives), while the latter is used to generate and parse 
the SSAP messages exchanged between the Knowledge Processor and the Semantic 
Information Broker. Due to the features of PHP technology, the subscription 
functionality has not been implemented because it is not possible to run an 
independent control flow (i.e. thread) to manage SIB notifications. Nonetheless 
the demo shows how easy it is to handle information exchange betweenweb agents 
thanks to the Smart-M3 based Interoperability Platform. Future works will 
include the integration of the library with a PHP based content management 
system (i.e. Drupal) to enable context aware content access.

2) Secure chat
https://sourceforge.net/projects/m3chat/

The aim of the contribution is to demonstrate a simple chat system over the 
SMART-M3 platform with particular focus on aspects that concerns information 
security privacy. The proposed application provides the basic functionalities 
of a chat service and, in particular, a room-based private or public 
communication. Since in the current implementation of smart-M3 security issues 
like message encoding and access control are not natively supported, we tried 
to introduce policies and mechanism to provide this features for the Secure M3 
Chat System. The most important qualities of smart M3 that we have found useful 
when developing the application are the scalability and the interoperability 
provided by the ontology based semantic approach of information representation: 
different devices and clients may be coded in several programming environments 
and languages communicating and cooperating to provide a good perceived quality 
of service to the final user .

BR,

Luca
