Abstract

The use of a collaborative recommendation system applying fuzzy linguistic techniques is proposed in this paper. This system is included in a mobile application that manages information and the enrollment process in the activities of the Environmental Educational Program of the City of Madrid. This tool informs the user of all activities: workshops, routes, exhibitions, gardening, etc., that are made in the Environmental Education Centres of the City of Madrid. Because of the extra information that the user can receive is essential to have a system to provide the activities that may be most interesting for the user. These activities are selected based on the user’s preferences profile and the register with the ratings of the activities previously performed by other users, especially, the evaluations of those with a similar profile.
