The provision of pervasive computing services is a challenging research area. This paper elaborates on the notion of Personal Smart Spaces (PSSs) that allows the delivery of pervasive services to mobile users. PSSs aim to couple the facilities offered by next generation mobile communications with the features provided by the static smart spaces to support a more ubiquitous, context-aware and personalised...
Data-oriented applications have experienced a huge growth mainly in distributed settings. The increasing amount of available data has made it hard for users to find the information they need in the way they consider relevant. To help matters, a user-centric approach may be used to enhance query answering and, particularly, provide query personalization. In this work, we address the issue of personalizing...
The explosive growth of location detection devices, wireless communications, and mobile databases has resulted in the realization of location based services. Unfortunately, current location based services are rigid as they are isolated from various concepts of contextual information which include not only user's location but also user's preference, user's plan, network connectivity, etc. In this paper...
In order to provide context-aware services, context modeling is one of the most important tasks. Ontology has been widely accepted for the context modeling but it brings some overheads in the process of reasoning large-scale and dynamic information. In mobile networks, especially, ontology should be verified to be applicable for Context-aware Services since real-time responsiveness for large scale...
The European2228319 research project ??C-Cast?? (context-aware content casting) aims at providing an end-to-end system design for context-aware services and content provisioning. The project does not limit itself to reasoning but embraces also efficient service provisioning to user groups detected and formed according to the inferred user context. This paper presents the architecture components related...
Context-aware computing is one of the research fields of pervasive computing. Context-aware systems can react to the user's preference according to the circumstances called context including location, time and other environment conditions. Many context-aware computing paradigms were developed in recent year, however, it is difficult for the present systems to extend the application domains and interoperate...
