A preference-based application framework for resource-bounded context-aware agents

Abstract

Context-awarenescng is the dynamic adaptation to changes in the resource-bounded operating environment with user preferences. For example, a depersonalized context-aware application may exhibit behavior that is not anticipated by its user in a given situation. In this paper, we present a personalized preference model for resource-bounded context-aware applications, which provides support for the development and execution of context-aware applications using a declarative language. We implement a simple example system that demonstrates the effectiveness of the approach in a real-world scenario.
