Abstract

In the last decade, context-aware computing [1] has become a reality and everyday applications are becoming context-aware. Context-aware systems facilitate the use of devices available in the environment of users. A context-aware system needs to be aware of the available resources to detect changes in the environment; and adapt system functionality and behavior [2]. A context-aware system has the following three basic features [1]: sensing, thinking, and acting. Systems can vary in sophistication in each of these functionalities [2]. Contextaware applications require behavior that is highly adaptive and depends heavily on the available resources which may also be transient in nature.
