Tóm tắt

Our research targets collaborative environments with focus on mobility and teams. This environment comprise a number of people working on multiple tasks and activities simultaneously. As mobile and wireless technology advances people are no longer bound to their offices. Team members are able to collaborate while on the move. So, mobile ubiquitous application can be a best solution to provide a mobility and collaboration for the environment. And the issue must be considered how to coordinate these ubiquitous application seamlessly and efficiently. We present a methodology for context modeling and employ a framework that reduces costs such as computing information and usage of network resources by transferring context at relevant levels of detail. At the same time, robustness of the system is improved by dealing with uncertain context information. Our framework is implemented on an OSGi container platform using Web services for communication means.
