This document summarizes context-aware artifacts and mobile phones. It discusses two approaches for context-aware artifacts: self-supported and infrastructure-supported. It provides examples of self-supported artifacts like smart furniture, mirrors, and chairs that have embedded sensors. It also discusses how infrastructure can perceive contexts related to artifacts. Examples of context-aware mobile phones are described that use self-contained sensors or external infrastructure for context-awareness. Frameworks like ContextPhone and Situation-Aware Phone that enable context-aware applications on mobile devices are summarized.

4. Aware Objects
Robot : perform human-level tasks
Soft toy : responding and reacting to its user’s handling context or
hearing warm greetings
Intelligent shelves : self introducing and self marketing
Cell phones : automatically behaving in the right way under the right circumstances
Context-aware behavior in devices, appliances, and everyday objects are an
emerging new experience.
Context-aware artifact, Smart artifacts
• Able to perceive the situation of a user and Reacts sensibly to it
• Promise to enhance the relationships among participants in distributed
working groups, maintaining personal mobility while offering opportunities for
the collaboration, informal communication, and social awareness that
contribute to the synergy and cohesiveness inherent in collocated teams.

5. infrastructure-supported context-aware artifacts
Sensor added context-aware artifacts
• Limitations in the number and type of sensors that can be attached
• Limited computational and networking capabilities
limit the reasoning and prevent them to acquiring information from internet
such as weather report or traffic condition
infrastructure-supported context-aware artifacts
• Utilizes a hardware and software infrastructure external to the artifact
• The idea shifts from the artifact perceiving situations
to an external party perceiving situations related to the artifact
• Complex reasoning with an infrastructure + Sensors in the artifact itself
EX) CUP situations
collection of sensors attached to the CUP
infrastructure observe the CUP & its situations from outside the CUP

6. 2 approaches to Context-Aware Artifacts
Context-aware Artifacts : 2 development approaches, 2006. Loke
Self-supported context awareness
• H/W, S/W with ability to perceive context and utilize context in its behaviors
Infrastructure-supported context awareness
• acquires context-aware capabilities by utilizing H/W and S/W infrastructure
external to the artifact
• Infrastructure - the environment of the artifact
and shared by other artifacts and applications
The relationship between context-aware artifacts and
the context-awareness infrastructure.
The infrastructure first receives the contextual
information and, if appropriate, reasons with it
The infrastructure uses a feedback mechanism to
determine the commands it issues and the context
information it shares with various artifacts.

Research questions
• What is the role of context-awareness in personal technology devices ?
• Why is context awareness of personal technology important ?
• What are the contexts that are associated with hand-held devices ?
• How can hand-held devices, with limited resources, identify these context ?
Prototype system : self-supported context-awareness mobile phone
• Sensor box with sensors for acceleration, temperature, humidity, light, conductance
• Exploit context-awareness in reducing the interaction in the user interface,
modifying interaction to more suitable for mobile use.
• Implement rule-based behaviors such as “if the phone rings and it is picked up, it
should stop ringing.”

Self-supported context-aware mobile phones – previously described
Situation-Aware phone (Wang, 2004)
• Ontology-based approach to recognize & reason the context
• Using supporting infrastructure
Context-Aware Phone (Connelly, 2000)
• Using infrastructure representing the space in which the phone is situated in
• the space and phone would negotiate in determining suitable actions on the
phone
Space control over the phone
• for compliance reasons : abide by some policy concerning phone usage and
behavior
• for convenience reasons : the actions can be carried out on the phone
automatically, reducing user intervention)

16. Situation-Aware phone
Semantic Space: An Infrastructure for Smart Spaces, 2004, Wang
Semantic Space : a context infrastructure for the following issues
• Explicit representation , Context querying, Context reasoning. :
Ex) Who is in the room with Yoon?
• Context-aware applications must adapt to changing situations,
they need a detailed model of users’ activities and surroundings that lets
them share users’ perceptions of the real world
• Ontology : Smart spaces cover a range of environment types such as homes,
offices, workplaces, classrooms, and vehicles
The context infrastructure consists of several context wrappers, an context
aggregator, a knowledge base, a query engine, and a reasoner.
Rachel wishes to contact her friend Joey, so she instructs her mobile phone to arrange a call.
Upon request, Joey’s mobile phone checks the calendar and realizes he’s currently attending a
seminar. The phone determines on his behalf that he shouldn’t be interrupted and schedules a
call back when the seminar ends. Soon after the seminar, Professor Geller asks Joey to have a
discussion in his office. Before the phone reminds Joey of the missed call as scheduled earlier, it
wants to know whether his current situation is suitable for receiving the call. Based on contextual
information (Where are you? Who are you with? What is the noise level? Is the door open or
closed?) gathered in the smart space, the Phone infers that Joey is in a conversation with his
supervisor and decides to postpone the call until he’s available. A few minutes later, when the
conversation ends and Joey leaves the office, the phone finally reminds him of the missed call.

On Negotiating Automatic Device Configuration in Smart Environments, 2004, Kay
Connelly and Ashraf Khalil
• Architecture for automatic device configuration in smart environments
• negotiating between the user’s wishes and owner of the smart environment
• User Intervention
• Agent-based negotiation : to decide the best negotiation strategy given the
limitation (computing, battery, and memory) of mobile devices.
Another challenge is finding the correct metrics that quantify both the space
and device preferences
• Where to reside resolution logic ?
Device modes on Cell phone
Quiet Mode: ringer should be disabled
Noisy Mode: user is in a loud environment
Disable Mode: all incoming and outgoing
calls should be disabled
Default Mode: normal conditions

CAMP-UP (Context-Aware Mobile Phone with User Preferences)
• the level of access (from external parties) to phone functionality can be adjusted,
based on the context and user preferences
The architecture of the system :
A server side & A client side
two classes of users :
device (mobile phone) user
space administrator
two types of interactions
• The user and his mobile phone
- Set his preferences for the device
- Set the type of functionalities
, exposed and controlled by external parties
• The space administrator and the Space Manager component of the system
- Defines a space policy, which is a set of rules that determines certain device
functionalities to be set to certain modes based on current context
