A Middle-Level Ontology for Context Modelling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Context modelling is one of the stages conducted during the context life cycle. It has the aim of giving meaning and structure to the collected context’s raw data. Although there are different context models proposed in the literature, we have identified some gaps that are not fully covered, particularly related to the reusability of the models themselves and the lack of consolidated and standardized ontological resources. To tackle this problem, we adopt a three-layered context ontology perspective and we focus on this paper in the middle layer, which is defined following a prescriptive process and structured in a modular way for supporting reuse.

School of IT Technical Report PERSONALISED PERVASIVE MODELLING WITH A PERSONALISED CONTEXT ONTOLOGY
Ontologies have been shown to e ectively model domain knowledge and to automate reasoning about personalised and contextualised information. To exploit this potential in modelling a highly dynamic domain, such as a pervasive computing environment, it is also desirable to integrate the ontological reasoning e ectively with the other reasoning within the context modelling. In this paper, we descr...
متن کاملContext-aware Modeling for Spatio-temporal Data Transmitted from a Wireless Body Sensor Network
Context-aware systems must be interoperable and work across different platforms at any time and in any place. Context data collected from wireless body area networks (WBAN) may be heterogeneous and imperfect, which makes their design and implementation difficult. In this research, we introduce a model which takes the dynamic nature of a context-aware system into consideration. This model is con...
متن کاملOWL-based location ontology for context-aware services
Diverse location-sensing technologies must be integrated to meet the requirements of generalized location-awareness in ubiquitous computing environments. A formal and comprehensive ontology based modelling of location makes it possible to derive and integrate consistent high-level location information from sparse, heterogeneous location data. Defined this way, location information may provide a...
متن کاملA Model Driven Integration Architecture for Ontology-Based Context Modelling and Context-Aware Application Development
Context-awareness is a very important feature for pervasive services to enhance their flexibility and adaptability to changing conditions and dynamic environments. Using ontologies to model context information and to reason about context at a semantic level has attracted a lot of interest in the research community. However, most of the proposed solutions are ad hoc or proprietary. Therefore, em...
متن کاملEnriching a context ontology with mid-level features for semantic multimedia analysis
In this paper we focus on a contextual domain ontology representation aiding in the process of knowledge-assisted multimedia analysis. Previous work on the detection of high-level concepts within multimedia documents is extended by introducing a “mid-level” ontology as a means of exploiting the visual context of images, in terms of high-level concepts and mid-level region types they consist of....
