By context, we mean environmental information that is part of an application's operating environment and that can be sensed by the application. The Context Toolkit consists of context widgets and a distributed infrastructure that hosts the widgets. Context widgets are software components that provide applications with access to context information while hiding the details of context sensing. In the same way GUI widgets insulate applications from some presentation concerns, context widgets insulate applications from context acquisition concerns. To summarize, the services of the Context Toolkit are: encapsulation of sensors access to context data through a network API abstraction of context data through interpreters sharing of context data through a distributed infrastructure storage of context data, including history basic access control for privacy protectionhttp://www.cs.cmu.edu/~anind/context.htmlcschie2009-03-18T14:13:50+01:00Dey applications context context-aware publications <span itemprop="description">Overview The Context Toolkit aims at facilitating the development and deployment of context-aware applications.
