Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) UKARI-Core, a communication middleware platform for networked appliances, has been developed to construct flexible and dynamical services by connecting individual functions on the networked appliances. Target networked appliances for UKARI-Core include consumer electronics appliances, audio and visual appliances and sensors embedded in the house as well as robots which play a role of human interface. This paper describes the way in which UKARI-Core defines the types of media and treats them to construct the home networking services. Also, two examples of services are presented. The first one is a service to transform text media into audio or text and text. Transforming text media into text, actually, means an interpreting service. The second one is a streaming service of audio media. In this service, the audio media could be played at the audio media player closest to the user’s position which could be detected by the sensors which are also connected using UKARI-Core.
