This volume brings together original papers by linguists and
philosophers on the role of context and perspective in language and
thought. Several contributions are concerned with the
contextualism/relativism debate, which has loomed large in recent
philosophical discussions. In a substantial introduction, the
editors survey the field and map out the relevant issues and
positions.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 9th International and
Interdisciplinary Conference on Modeling and Using Context, CONTEXT
2015, held in Larnaca, Cyprus, in November 2015. The 33 full papers
and 13 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected
from 91 submissions. The main theme of CONTEXT 2015 was "Back to
the roots", focusing on the importance of interdisciplinary
cooperations and studies of the phenomenon. Context, context
modeling and context comprehension are central topics in
linguistics, philosophy, sociology, artificial intelligence,
computer science, art, law, organizational sciences, cognitive
science, psychology, etc. and are also essential for the
effectiveness of modern, complex and distributed software systems.
CONTEXT 2015 embedded also a Doctoral Symposium, and three
workshops; Smart University 3.0; CATI: Context Awareness and
Tactile Design for Mobile Interaction; and SHAPES 3.0: The Shape of
