CRL: A Context-aware Request Language for Mobile Computing
Alvin T.S. Chan, Peter Y.H. Wong and Siu Nam Chuang abstract
This paper introduces an XML-based generic Context Request Language (CRL), whose construction is part of a web services framework in the domain of mobile context sensing. The paper describes an implementation of the technique that is in accordance with the formal mathematical representational model, using first-order temporal language [6]. The language is an attempt to introduce intelligence into context-aware computing by defining context-sensing elements into logical entities. The use of first-order calculus in this language definition serving on web service technology allows users to utilize context aggregation and to embed user control in contextual information. By carrying out on-the-fly context inferences at the middleware level, we can achieve a complete separation of concerns between user application and context sensing. Moreover, the declaration of contextual knowledge based on situations and events within the predicate domain allows users to express changes in contextual information and to quantify these elements among times and durations.
