Abstract :
In this paper, we propose an approach to delivering location-based information (LBI) and location-based web services (LBWS) to users based on users´ past behaviors. The service usage patterns mined from the user´s historical location visiting records and service utilization records are used to suggest relevant LBI and LBWS. Furthermore, the social network services are also adopted to enhance the usability of recommendation functions. For illustrating the feasibility of the proposed approach, a software system, called Location Explorer with Information Services (Lewis), is designed and implemented to realize the features of personalized location-based service delivery and web service utilization.
