Abstract :
The workshop exposed the potential of smart phones to act as context-awareness platforms. From the research community viewpoint, however, it was encouraging to see strong industrial interest in supporting and exploiting context awareness, which, not so long ago, was more of a lab curiosity than consumer technology. The Qualcomm Context Awareness Symposium (QCAS) focused on understanding how future applications can bridge this gap.
