This book is one of the early efforts in building a real-life
Intelligent Environment. The author dreams that one day not only
smart devices could communicate with each other but also smart
houses through Context-Aware Computing (CAC) approach. CAC is a new
approach in software engineering for Intelligent Environment. It is
an approach in the design and construction of a context-aware
application that exploits rapid changes in access to relevant
information and the availability of communication and computing
resources in the mobile computing environment. The goal of CAC is
to make interaction between users and computers easier in a smart
environment, where technology is spread throughout (pervasive),
computers are everywhere at the same time (ubiquitous) and
technology is embedded (ambient) to the environment. Context-aware
applications need not be difficult, tedious or require the
acquisition of new skills on the user part. They should be safe,
easy, simple to use and should enable new functionality without the
need to learn new technology. This book also proposes the
evaluation of context-aware application to determine what to test,
how to test and the appropriate metrics to use.
