Abstract :
Context awareness is one of the most fundamental issues in pervasive computing. In this paper, component based context model based on middleware architecture is proposed. Moreover, OWL-based context ontology for modelling context information to easily share and reuse context knowledge is presented. By giving fire alarm scenario for our prototype, the proposed component based context architecture can be deployed in different context-aware application and can provide a middleware support for context representation and knowledge sharing.
