- A Fuzzy Model for Reasoning About Reputation in Web Services
- Reputation systems are typically based on ratings given by the users. When there are no mechanisms in place to detect collusion and deception, combining user testimonies as such to form a provider's reputation may not give an accurate assessment, especially if the context of the ratings is not known. Moreover,...

- Using Service-Oriented Architecture in Context-Aware Applications
- The enhancements in mobile device infrastructure enable the use of a location computer service while user is on the move; such systems are known as Location-Based Services LBS. When these applications manage user profile and context, they are coined context-aware applications. This paper proposes a service-oriented architecture for context-aware applications...

- Groupware System Design and the Context Concept
- The concept of context can be advantageously applied to the Computer-Supported Cooperative Work field. The term awareness has traditionally been used in this area without explicit association to context. This paper attempts to clarify the relationship between these two concepts. In particular, a framework is proposed to understand context and...

- Middleware for Distributed Context-Aware Systems
- Context-aware systems represent extremely complex and heterogeneous distributed systems, composed of sensors, actuators, application components, and a variety of context processing components that manage the flow of context information between the sensors/actuators and applications. The need for middleware to seamlessly bind these components together is well recognised. Numerous attempts to...

- Context- and Path-Sensitive Memory Leak Detection
- This paper presents a context- and path-sensitive algorithm for detecting memory leaks in programs with explicit memory management. The leak detection algorithm is based on an underlying escape analysis: any allocated location in a procedure P that is not deallocated in P and does not escape from P is leaked....

- Personalising Context-Aware Applications
- 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. One of the main challenges s how to elicit and represent complex, context-dependent requirements, and then use the resulting representations within context-aware applications to support decision-making processes....

- Context-Aware Filtering for Collaborative Web Systems: Adapting the Awareness Information to the User's Context
- This paper proposes a context-based filtering process which aims at adapting the awareness information delivered to mobile users by collaborative web systems. This filtering process relies on a model of context which integrates both a physical and an organizational dimensions and allows to represent the user's current context as well...

- Extending Context Models for Privacy in Pervasive Computing Environments
- Privacy is widely recognised as a significant obstacle inhibiting the adoption of context-aware applications. In order to remove this obstacle, advances are required in many areas of context-awareness research. This paper addresses the incorporation of privacy support into context models. In particular, it presents extensions to the context modelling approach...

- Automating Context-Aware Application Development
- To develop robust, evolvable, context-aware applications that are flexible enough to reconfigure and adapt in response to changes in context such as location, connectivity, resources, security, and user preferences, a rich context model, infrastructure components, and programming paradigms are required. The development and deployment of context-aware applications can be further...
