A Practical Framework for Comprehensive Mobile Context Visualization

With the advent of various context sensors on mobile devices, context-aware mobile computing is emerging. Consequently, a number of advanced mobile applications utilizing contexts are expected to grow. However, there remain a number of research issues unresolved, reasoning for group of users, reasoning with contexts for past behavior and future trends and indications, visualizing various types of mobile contexts effectively for better comprehension. We present a design of an advanced context visualizer which provides unique and noble features which are required in developing advanced context-aware mobile applications. We present the design and implementation, and present context reasoning methods as well.
