Abstract

Intelligent and context-aware mobile services require users and applications to share information and utilize services from remote locations. Thus, context information from the users must be structured and be accessible to applications running in end-devices. In response to this challenge, we present a shared object-oriented meta model for a persistent agent environment. The approach enables agents to be context-aware facilitating the creation of ambient intelligence demonstrated by a sensor-based scenario. The agents are context-aware as agent actions are based upon sensor information, social information, and the behavior of co-agents.
