Abstract

In the previous chapter, we have introduced different types of social context information and present ontologies that represent them. However, some useful social context information in the ontologies (e.g., Father-Daughter, best friend) cannot be acquired directly from the possible sources, but can be derived from the acquired data. Moreover, new concepts (e.g., Group Meeting, Busy), as required by applications, can be deduced and abstracted from the existing concepts. Furthermore, users’ social interactions can be exploited to infer their situations which can be used to enhance applications’ functionalities.
