An infrastructure for developing context aware applications in pervasive environments

Published: 16 March 2008 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents the Lotus, an infrastructure to develop context-aware applications, providing the mechanisms for acquiring, representing, reasoning and delivering of contextual information. This infrastructure consists of a framework, which is composed by an API and a middleware, a language to represent contextual information and a mechanism to share and delivery contextual information.
