Towards a Context Monitoring System for Ambient Networks
Roel M. Ocampo, Lawrence Cheng, Kerry Jean, Alex Galis, Alberto Gonzalez Prieto · 2006
This paper presents a novel network context monitoring system, known as the Context Monitoring System (CMS), that is designed to accommodate the rapidly changing network context requirements and network context availability in dynamically (de) composing Ambient Networks (ANs). CMS is designed to support dynamic deployment, activation, and (re) configuration of Context Sensors in ANs in an efficient and scalable way, and to locate available distributed network context in a scalable and distributed manner once Context Sensors are deployed, in order to support subsequent efficient and scalable network context retrieval.
