Abstract :
Nowadays, Internet is a complex information space in which information is spread among many different data sources. Public and private institutions have already worked on some projects to gather geolocalized information about public places. However, no work has been carried out on information repositories about the activities developed in those places. Thus, due to the lack of clear reference information, citizens do not usually know how to take advantage of offers provided by their cultural environment. This paper presents a system for mobile devices that tries to solve this problem. Personalized information on events that take place in the user´s town will be shown, taking into account her/his interests and preferences. Besides, the user interaction with the application will enable the system to evolve and improve the user model so that more accurate personalized data can be provided at a specific time.
