Abstract
A user and service mobility support system and method of in a ubiquitous environment is provided. When a user moves to a domain area capable of using various service equipment by pursuing a location of a user using a mobile communication service outdoors, the user may continuously use a service by determining service equipment based on the user'"'"'s preference information, available equipment information, and service characteristic information. The user may continuously use a service through various equipments although the user moves into the domain area while the user has used a mobile communication service through the terminal outdoors. In order to select service equipment from among various media equipment, the optimum service equipment is determined based on the user and service characteristic information, and accordingly, it is possible to provide service movement convenience and satisfaction to the user.
