Group: Context Awareness Research Interest Group

We base the initiative on the basic definition of Context that is given by ISO 94211-11 standard:

Context is user, his goals and tasks, infrastructure (hardware, software, materials), the physical and social environment in which the product is used.

We believe that if OS will be able to detect these aspects of context, it would be much easier to create context-aware applications which in turn will enable ISVs to ship context-aware apps that will be user-friendly.

If you share our ideas, welcome and join our Interest Group. We talk on Context Awareness at different events in Russia and WW and work on several context-aware samples, you can contribute here.
