Reasoning about uncertain contexts in pervasive computing environments
Anirudh Ranganathan, Jalal F. Al-Muhtadi, Roy H. Campbell · IEEE Pervasive Computing · 2004
Context-aware systems can't always identify the current context precisely, so they need support for handling uncertainty. A prototype pervasive computing infrastructure, Gaia, allows applications and services to reason about uncertainty using mechanisms such as probabilistic logic, fuzzy logic, and Bayesian networks.
