ABSTRACT
The advance in wireless networks and in positioning systems has led to the development of a new generation of mobile applications: location-based services (LBS). LBS offer highly personalized services to users of mobile devices such as telephones, pagers, and PDAs (mobile users) based on their locations, user profiles and context information. The publish/subscribe paradigm is an information dissemination model for loosely-coupled distributed applications, and is appropriate for the implementation of LBS. However, existing publish/subscribe data models and algorithms have limitations when applied to LBS. In this paper, we show how Subject Spaces -- a state persistent publish/subscribe model -- can be used to model LBS and overcome the limitations of traditional publish/subscribe systems.

A predictive location model for location-based services
GIS '03: Proceedings of the 11th ACM international symposium on Advances in geographic information systemsLocation-Based Services (LBSs) utilize information about users' locations through location-aware mobile devices to provide services, such as nearest features of interest, they request. This is a common strategy in LBSs and although it is needed and ...
Geographical perspectives on location for location based services
LOCWEB '09: Proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop on Location and the WebIn this position paper the question of how location is employed in location based services (LBS) is considered. The importance of the notion of location is highlighted as a means of blurring the boundary between forms of experiences that are direct, and ...
Integrating heterogeneous locating services for efficient development of location-based services
iiWAS '15: Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications & ServicesThis paper proposes a unified locating service, KULOCS, which horizontally integrates the heterogeneous locating services. Focusing on technology-independent elements [when], [where] and [who] in location queries, KULOCS integrates data and operations ...
