Context Modeling and Context Awareness: steps forward in the Context−ADDICT project

Abstract

We give an account of the researches on context-aware information tailoring which are going on within the PEDiGREE group at Politecnico di Milano, starting from a foundational framework for the lifecycle of context-aware information systems, in which the system design and management activities consider context as an orthogonal, first-class citizen. The design-time and run-time activities involved in this life-cycle provide material for stimulating research, summarized in this paper.
