A Framework for Context-Aware Systems in Mobile Devices

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 7336))

Abstract

The pervasive and ubiquitous computing is a computing paradigm that aims to integrate the real world with the virtual world so that is not perceived by users. One of the areas of study of this paradigm is the context-aware systems that are systems that perform some action after collecting information that characterizes a given context. The objective of this paper is to describe the specification of a framework that can be utilized for the development of new context-sensitive applications.
