In the field of Marketing Augmented Reality (AR) has the capability to induct necessary innovation which can drive marketing in a user centric dimension which provides exploratory AR experience which is driven by user orientation due to context awareness. Context aware branding and customer preference marketing will present users to view marketing content at their own convenience and driven by utility.
In recent years, paratransit is a very important transportation for serving disabilities. Currently, the dispatching center has arranged for driver's tasks which carry passengers. The operators are difficult to efficiently monitor each vehicle's attendance and diving state. The rate of vehicular utilization is low and the problem of service inefficiency appears. Passengers cannot know the arrival...
Large scale mobile data is valuable for extracting context in open physical world. In this paper, we propose a spatio-temporal context query framework in open space based on GPS data. The framework consists of three parts: GPS data, query engine, and user interface. It aims at providing query for contexts like crowd position and movement. First, the framework adopts status-based indexing method for...
This paper proposes a mobile application for retrieving electronic updates from virtual learning environments using dimensions of context. Using automatically generated RSS feeds from a Moodle based virtual learning environment, information can easily be delivered in a concise format through wireless networks directly to the student's device. The paper reports on a pilot study carried out to provide...
Sensor plays an important role in context-aware computing. While sensor modeling is usually isolated from former researches on context modeling and sensor type is always restricted to physical ones, this paper aims to provide a more comprehensive insight into the relationships between sensor and context. Based on a more generic definition of sensor and a corresponding sensor category in context-aware...
The Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) takes the advantage of the relative mobility of the vehicles to opportunistically share dynamic information when they meet, aiming to avoid accidents and traffic jams, get local information of the nearby places, enjoy entertainment applications among others. However, the shared information must be handled properly, saving bandwidth and tackling the unnecessary...
Context-aware self-adaptive applications monitor and exploit knowledge about external operating conditions and adapt to changes in the execution context. Modern smartphones are equipped with several sensors, like GPS sensor or accelerometer. Additionally, context reasoners and external context providers exist. Thus, it is possible that several context providers offer information of the same type (e...
The paper introduces an approach to automatically recognize people's activity patterns within an “intelligent” building. We envisage a model of interactions with a smart phone and building. Various sensors in smart phone enable to recognize daily routine of people's activities automatically in building. The smart phone application; `Activity Pattern Recognition in Mobile Environment (APRiME)' recognized...
People on the move have a grown need for real-time information and services anytime and anywhere. In many situations, travelers do not feel at ease and well informed when using public transport. Context information on mobile phones e.g., location and calendar data, can significantly improve the user experience in the current situation. The paper addresses an approach of service offering and usage...
