Understanding Context-Aware Business Applications in the Future Internet Environment

چکیده
The obvious move towards a Future Internet environment that is strongly distributed, mobile, cloud-based, semantically rich has raised and emphasized the need for a different type of applications. The focus of this new type of applications can no longer be on the software itself but directly on the relevant needs and goals of end-users. We argue that because these applications are strongly end-user oriented, context and context-awareness play an important role in their design and development. Hence in this paper we discuss context-aware business applications towards a better understanding of their specific features. We emphasize two major directions related to context oriented applications, their importance, and the order in which they should be followed and interlinked.
