Combining the emerging Internet of Things and lifelogging sensors, we believe it is possible to build up a Digital Memory (Dig-Mem) in order to complement the fallible memory of people. This work shows how to realize the Dig-Mem in terms of interactions, affinities, activities, goals and protocols. We also complement this Dig-Mem with memory-aware services and a Dig-Mem browser. Furthermore, we propose a RFID Tag-Sharing technique to speed up the adoption of Dig-Mem. Experimentation reveals an improvement of the user understanding of Dig-Mem as time passes, compared to natural memories where the level of detail decreases over time.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s131115113","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,5]],"date-time":"2013-11-05T11:48:44Z","timestamp":1383652124000},"page":"15113-15137","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Towards Memory-Aware Services and Browsing through Lifelogging Sensing"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Lorena","family":"Arcega","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, San Jorge University, Zaragoza 50830, Spain"}]},{"given":"Jaime","family":"Font","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, San Jorge University, Zaragoza 50830, Spain"}]},{"given":"Carlos","family":"Cetina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, San Jorge University, Zaragoza 50830, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Baddeley, A.D., Kopelman, M.D., and Wilson, B.A. (2002).
