Abstract
The contribution of this paper is a novel service architecture for
facilitating the development of context-aware applications in heterogeneous
distributed environments. The requirements, architecture and functional
validation of the architecture are contributed. The research problem addressed
in the paper is dynamic acquisition and representation of context information
and its efficient provisioning for applications via a software service
architecture. The approach taken in the paper is to introduce a service
architecture called Context Monitoring Service (CMS) that provides a
dynamically evolving semantic model of context information that the
applications can access in order to react to changes in the context. The CMS
architecture is functionally validated in two experimental system
implementations including the CMS service prototype and exemplary facility
surveillance applications utilizing the CMS service.
