Making Pre-Trip Services Context-Aware
نویسنده
چکیده
The process of selection, configuration and consumption of tourist information services is a complex task for the user. This is not least since existing tools most often focus on supporting either the preor post-trip phase or the on-trip phase itself by providing context-aware services. The goal of this thesis is to establish a framework that makes pre-trip services context-aware, thus reducing the gap between the pre-trip and on-trip phase by providing a single point of access. This is done by facilitating service selection and configuration in the pre-trip phase and context-aware service consumption in the on-trip phase. Its applicability and feasibility will be proved by a working prototype and evaluated through field studies.
