Context Awareness in Mobile Cultural Heritage Applications

چکیده
In this paper, a novel definition of Context is presented along with its usage in a Mobile application for Cultural Heritage (CH). The proposed approach is pragmatic and takes care of practical issues that need to be addressed when an implementation has to be built. Examples are shown of how the context is used for three different purposes: context-aware media retrieval, user orienteering and sensor-driven active contents control.
