Zhenjiang Miao, Baozong Yuan · IET International Conference on Wireless Mobile and Multimedia Networks Proceedings (ICWMMN 2006) · 2006
This paper analyzes context awareness for pervasive computing. In terms of context acquisition, it classifies context as three types: provided context, sensed context and derived context. Based on the context types and considering sensor networks and spontaneous networks, a new network, spontaneous sensor network, is proposed and discussed. (4 pages)
