Abstract :
This paper presents an approach for developing context-aware intelligent applications for Smart Space-based infrastructure. The goal is to model and process context information using our development tool and Nokia´s Smart-M3 architecture. We propose an adaptable and scalable context ontology, an ambient computing framework based on Smart Spaces and a rule based reasoning to infer higher level context. Our approach deals with several key issues in context aware ubiquitous computing such as adaptive and proactive changes in the environment, incorporation of novel sources of context information and automatic code generation from Context Ontologies to provide seamless interoperability.
