Context Aware Services

Abstract: Today customization of services and applications is one of the major challenges in facilitating ease of use. More and more people are interested in context aware services. In this work, I will study context awareness: What contributions can it make? What technical issues are raised? I will concentrate on the semantic problem and show how new technologies such as a web ontology language can facilitate creating context aware services. An application was implemented using these principles as a proof of concept and to enable some evaluation of this approach. This application has shown that combining semantic processing with SIP call processing is feasible and measurements have demonstrated a highly scalable context aware application for at least simple CPL scripts.
