Abstract
Smartness of applications is heavily based on their ability to use
context information for behaving a way that perfectly matches to the situation
where the application is used and running. However, achieving a situation
based behavior is not straightforward; the situation is to be identified; the
functionality that pro-vides the best fit (not always the optimal one) is to
be selected from a set of options; and the smart envi-ronment is to be
configured so that the primary goal can be achieved. This paper introduces an
advanced solution for context monitoring and context sharing among software
agents; a graphical user interface for defining the scope of context for the
application(s) in hand; the matchmaking of ontologies for defining the
reasoning rules to be used; and a rule graph as a means of configuring
application’s behavior in a way that it is aligned with the goal of the smart
environment. The concept has been implemented as part of the maintenance
process of a smart building. It is still a challenge to reach context that can
dynamically up-date and, above all, expand itself.
