Abstract
Context management based on context domains is an approach for supporting interests of variable wideness, which is a fundamental requirement to context-aware computing in distributed and dynamic environments. This work explored this concept and presented three additional contributions: a primitive to describe context interests of variable wideness, the design and implementation of a middleware that support context domains, and a categorization of architectures for supporting distributed context-aware computing.
