Proximity-based systems: Incorporating mobility and scalability through proximity sensing
… and practical option for the development of context-aware systems for highly mobile and dynamic environments. Such systems would overcome the shortcomings experienced by today’s location-based and infrastructure dependent systems whose ability to deliver context-awareness is prescribed by …

A user-centred design framework for context-aware computing
… and promising application areas of mobile context-aware computing have emerged in recent years, such as tourist guides and navigation systems for visually impaired people. However, many researchers express grave concerns about the limited appreciation of human and social issues in design: …

AppaaS: Provisioning of Context-Aware Mobile Applications as a Service
… for a system that can elevate the momentum of context-aware mobile applications, where an application’s behavior is customized according to context information. This thesis proposes a context-aware system that provides mobile Applications as a Service (AppaaS). AppaaS handles various context …

A Study of Methods in Computational Psychophysiology for Incorporating Implicit Affective Feedback in Intelligent Environments
… compute-infrastructure to an extent that Context-Aware Intelligent Environment (CAIE)--physical spaces with computing systems embedded in it--are increasingly commonplace. With the widespread adoption of intelligent personal agents proliferating as close to us as our living rooms, there is …

A Reengineering Approach to Reconciling Requirements and Implementation for Context - Aware Web Services Systems
… is not always conciliated. Typically, for Web services-based context-aware systems, reconciling this gap is even harder. The aim of this research is to explore how software reengineering can facilitate the reconciliation between requirements and implementation for the said systems. The …

Context Awareness in the Internet of Things and its Applications
In the last decade the role of context awareness, traditionally focused on human to machine interaction, has broadened its perspectives to the machine to machine paradigma. The main goal of this dissertation is both to understand how to apply context awareness to situations , perceived by smart …

Context detection and abstraction in smart environments
Context-aware computing is currently considered the most promising approach to overcome information overload and to speed up access to relevant information and services. Context-awareness may be derived from many sources, including user profile and preferences, network information, sensor analysis; …

Design of platforms for computing context with spatio-temporal locality
… platforms for storing, querying, and computing contextual information. More specifically, we are interested in platforms for storing and querying spatio-temporal events where queries exhibit locality. Recent advances in sensor technologies have made possible gathering a variety of information on …

Bridging Sensor Data Streams and Human Knowledge
… situation..." [Smeulders et al., 2000]. In the context of this work, the lack of coincidence is between low-level raw streaming sensor data collected by sensors in a machine-readable format and higher-level semantic knowledge that can be generated from these data and that only humans can …
