Abstract

To develop context-aware Ambient Intelligence systems, suitable context models and reasoning approaches are necessary to provide the suitable services to users in dynamic and transparent manner. Due the advantages in modeling dynamic systems, Colored Petri Nets are adopted in this paper. So based on Colored Petri Nets modeling language, we propose a context-aware automatic service selection mechanism for intelligent environments. Using this formalism we also propose a solution to avoid conflict that can occur among resources sharing.
