Leveraging State-Based User Preferences in Context-Aware Reconfigurations for Self-Adaptive Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Applications in ubiquitous environments need to adapt to a range of fluid factors, like user preferences, context, and various system configurations. In this paper, we address the problem of system adaptation in order to continuously achieve high user benefit while keeping reconfiguration costs low. To this end, the presented approach leverages not only the immediate context but also future transitions. In contrast to existing approaches that either maximize benefit or minimize reconfiguration costs, our proposed decision support mechanism achieves a trade-off between those factors. Considering user preferences, deployment constraints, and probabilistic context state transitions, we propose a multi-objective utility function to determine the best reconfiguration choices. Experimental results show that the proposed approach achieves high user benefit while keeping reconfigurations costs low.

Recommender systems suggest proper items to customers based on their preferences and needs. Needed time to search is reduced and the quality of customer’s choice is increased using recommender systems. The context information like time, location and user behaviors can enhance the quality of recommendations and customer satisfication in such systems. In this paper a context aware recommender sys...
متن کاملContext-Aware Recommender Systems: A Review of the Structure Research
Recommender systems are a branch of retrieval systems and information matching, which through identifying the interests and requires of the user, help the users achieve the desired information or service through a massive selection of choices. In recent years, the recommender systems apply describing information in the terms of the user, such as location, time, and task, in order to produce re...

The plenty of data on the Internet has created problems for users and has caused confusion in finding the proper information. Also, users' tastes and preferences change over time. Recommender systems can help users find useful information. Due to changing interests, systems must be able to evolve. In order to solve this problem, users are clustered that determine the most desirable users, it pa...
متن کاملOptimizing the Utility Function-Based Self-adaptive Behavior of Context-Aware Systems Using User Feedback
The vision of ubiquitous computing is about numerous devices embedded in our every-day environment, designed to serve humans in a nonobtrusive manner while minimizing the required user attention. These devices are expected to seamlessly monitor context changes and adapt their behavior and functionality to maximize the user benefit. However, designing the selfadaptive logic of such systems is fa...
متن کاملEnabling Adaptivity in User Interfaces
The development of adaptive user interfaces has traditionally been restricted to research prototypes and few commercial products. Although there have been relevant achievements in the architectural support for self-adaptive context-aware systems [3, 19], the notion of context commonly supported is restricted and does not explicitly contemplate the facets of context related to user-application i...
