Mobile Context-Aware Applications for Ubiquitous Computing (J.UCS Special Issue)

Abstract

Mobile devices are changing users technological habits since the possibilities to be connected to Internet everywhere are increasing as technology is surrounding all aspects of users life. A user with a mobile device can find that its standard functionality can be extended with those applications and services provided by the environment. Moreover, the user can influence in the environment by means of its interactions. An important requirement is that the mobile device has to be able to interact with the context. Recent advances in mobile technology are providing mobile users with the capacity to interact with their surrounding world. Mobile systems can be deployed in a wide range of physical environments. The context awareness needed in these scenarios is much more than a question of location or positioning. These systems have to address more sophisticated techniques to adapt the systems behavior to the context of the user. This Special Issue tries to offer an innovative and original vision of the now and future context-aware applications for ubiquitous computing. A number of good quality papers were received and, after a rigorous reviewing process, only eleven papers were selected for publication. The next lines include a brief summary of each paper.
