Supporting Context-Awareness: A Taxonomic Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Context-aware applications realise the vision of ubiquitous computing by utilising information gathered from their environment to automatically adapt behaviour. To support the development of such applications, researchers have developed infrastructures, architectures, middlewares, and toolkits. This paper presents a taxonomy based on a review of these support infrastructures for context-aware computing. The taxonomy is organised as a set of categories, each of which is responsible for classifying context-related functionality at the software component level. It provides the nomenclature of terminology used to describe the features that characterise infrastructures for context-aware computing. The taxonomy supports the design of context-aware systems and provides a convenient way to compare and contrast middleware support for context-awareness.

متن کاملA review on the taxonomic status and biological characteristics of the genus Carassius (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) in Iranian inland waters
The genus Carassius is a genus of the family Cyprinidae, that its species are important part of the ornamental fish industry in Iran. Due to the recent changes in the taxonomic status of the genus Carassius, it is necessary to review the taxonomic statues of its recorded populations in Iran. Therefore, the present study was conducted to provide an overview of the taxonomic status of the genus C...
متن کاملContext-aware Multi-agent System in Machine-to-Machine Communication
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication refers to communication among machines without or with only limited human intervention. The paper deals with context-awareness in M2M communication and proposes rich presence information as a concept to address context information in a multi-agent system supporting networking of machines. Rich Presence Information Data (RPID) extensions suitable for M2M ar...
