Implementation and Evaluation of a Location-Aware Wireless Multi-agent System

Determining the physical location of the users of a multi-agent system is essential if we want it to provide them with context-awareness services. A context-aware system can answer to the requests of its users in a more effective way, being able of consider the conditioners that affect them. Here we present SMAUG, a multiagent context-aware system aimed at managing the university tasks of tutor and pupils. We discuss several alternatives to obtain context-awareness and propose a concrete solution to this subject.
