Context and Context Awareness of Humans and AmI Systems: Characteristics and Differences and Technological Challenges and Limitations

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
The Human Face of Ambient Intelligence

Part of the book series: Atlantis Ambient and Pervasive Intelligence ((ATLANTISAPI,volume 9))

Abstract

This chapter intends to look into the concept of context in relation to both human interaction and HCI‚ espousing a transdisciplinary approach‚ and to delve into the technological and social dimensions of context awareness, focusing on key aspects which are theoretically disputable and questionable in the realm of AmI and pointing out key challenges‚ open issues‚ and limitations.
