Context-aware computing is a computing paradigm in which applications can take advantage of contextual information. Quality of network connection is a very important factor for mob...
Context-aware applications rely on implicit forms of input, such as sensor-derived data, in order to reduce the need for explicit input from users. They are especially relevant for...
The immaturity of the field of context-aware computing means that little is known about how to incorporate appropriate personalisation mechanisms into context-aware applications. ...
Context-aware applications can better meet users’ needs when sensing agents installed in the environment automatically provide input relevant to the application. However, this n...
The Mobile Internet scenario encourages the design and development of context-aware applications that provide results depending on context information, such as the relative positi...

Uncertainty always exists as an unavoidable factor in any pervasive context-aware applications. This is mostly caused by the imperfectness and incompleteness of data. In this pape...
Testing and demonstrating context-aware applications is challenging. Gathering and using ‘life’ contextual information for these purposes, often requires significant extra dev...
We have developed a collection of portable platforms to enable context-aware applications to help users with their personal fitness. Our approach has been to focus on established ...

We are developing a context-aware application for use in homes, which detects high-level user behavior, such as “leaving the home” and “going to bed”, and provides services...
Context-aware applications require context information to adapt their behaviour to the current situation. When developing context-aware applications, application developers need to...
