Using a metamodel to design structural and behavioral aspects in context-sensitive groupware
Vaninha Vieira, Patricia Cabral de Azevedo Restelli Tedesco, Ana Carolina Salgado · 2010
A context-sensitive groupware uses information about a group and its participants' context in order to provide useful information and services to improve group work. A relevant issue when designing Context-Sensitive Systems (CSS) is how to represent contextual information and the system's behavior. This paper presents a Context Metamodel and shows preliminary experiments in two context-sensitive groupware performed to illustrate its usage and potential in designing CSS. The metamodel offers integrated support for modeling structural and behavioral aspects involved in context management and usage.
