Pervasive computing includes the vision of small but intelligent devices around us. While the hardware of such devices is available in the market for years,they are still not intelligent in our every day life. For the success of the idea of pervasive computing a unified programming model is needed. Without a standard way of composing intelligent applications for pervasive computing, especially context aware applications to minimize user input, and without standard communication protocols it will take a longtime till before we will see those applications in the market. To establish such standards we first need to be clear of the requirements and how to deal with those requirements in the best way. In this paper we present three important requirements. Moreover we present anew framework DAGR (Directed acyclic graph based context reasoning) to address these requirements.
