Abstract

The advance in wireless networks and in positioning systems has led to a new class of mobile applications: location-based services (LBS). LBS offer highly personalized services to mobile users based on their locations, user profiles and static and dynamic content information. The publish/subscribe paradigm is an information dissemination model appropriate for the implementation of LBS. However, existing publish/subscribe systems do not include location information in their models. In this paper we present an extension for the publish/subscribe paradigm that can effectively support push-oriented LBS.
