Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a personal home sewer that makes it possible to coordinate a variety of home appliances. Since each person has a different personal home server, it allows him/her to personalize how to use the appliances according to his preferences. Also, a personal home server can discover and configure appliances at any places, such as railroad stations, cars, and streets as well as houses in a seamless way. We show the design and implementation of a personal home server, and present its current status.
