An architecture for context-aware mobile web browsing
نویسنده
چکیده
Context information is not widely used while browsing the internet on mobile devices. With an adapted website, the content can become more suitable to the user. Currently, most examples of context-aware browsing are based on context information gathered by telecom providers, but mobile devices can also gather context information. In this paper, we investigate which context information can be gathered by mobile phones. We describe an architecture for sending context information from a mobile web browser to a web server via a HTTP post request with PIDF extended with Geopriv, thereby enabling easier and richer context-aware mobile web browsing.
