Abstract

Technological progress has made it possible to interact with computer systems and applications anywhere and any time. It is crucial that these applications are able to adapt to the user, as a person, and to its current situation, whatever that is. Contextual information and a mechanism to reason about it have demonstrated an important potential to provide solutions in this respect. This paper aims at providing an integrated CBR architecture to be used in context-aware systems. It is the result of our work to develop ePH, a system for building dynamic user communities that share public interest information and knowledge that is accessible through always-on, context-aware services.
