Abstract

Car tourism systems are becoming popular nowadays, which are actually kinds of information services. This paper presents a context-aware information service system for car touring, named ScudMobile, which addresses some deficiencies of current tourist systems. It has three main features 1) ontology-based knowledge representation makes it easier to share context and information among terminals and servers; 2) Because of information pre-fetch strategy, ScudMobile will not restricted by infrastructure and be a good complement to current systems. 3) it is totally context-aware. The gathering, representation and presentation of information are completely according to both user context and device context.
