A Context Visualization Model for Wearable Computers
نویسنده
چکیده
Context-aware systems observe the user’s current context and apply this information to the user’s benefit. When implementing context-awareness, several issues need to be considered and this paper concentrates on presenting the context information to the user. The key components needed to construct the context are identified, and a model, which allows using different visualization techniques for the context, is proposed. In order to make the model more concrete, four use cases are presented, and the expandability of the model is discussed.

A Toolkit for Context-aware User Interface Development for Wearable Computers
This paper proposes the design and implementation of a toolkit for creating wearable user interfaces with reusable components. The toolkit is based on a model-driven approach that builds on an abstract model of the required user interface for an application. By using available context information of a wearable system, the toolkit supports context-aware user interfaces that adapt themselves.
