Architectural Solutions for Context-Aware Applications: KoDA Prototype
Dennis M. Lupiana · International Journal for Information Security Research · 2019
Central to any context-aware application is a context-aware architecture.A context-aware architecture monitors and analyzes its environment to enable context-aware applications and subsequently computing devices to effortlessly and appropriately respond to users' computing needs.This paper presents a Knowledge-driven Distributed Architecture (KoDA), describes implementation of its prototype and illustrates how it can be applied and used in a real-world environment.KoDA is unique as is developed based on a knowledge intensive model, which provides a comprehensive model of the real-world in which the users and computing devices interact.Thus apart from monitoring ability, KoDA can intelligently use relevant information that is accessible in a room to recognize the users' ongoing context.KoDA collectively takes into account information about who, what, when and where to recognize ongoing context.
