Abstract
Nowadays, smart and pervasive environments are characterized by a large number of devices and related services offered to users. Providing the most appropriate services according to user behavior and preferences is still a challange and strongly depends on the user’s current context. How it is well known, the context is often rich of data and very dynamic, and the users aim to continuosly receive information about contextualised services. In this scenario, Cultural Heritage represents a do- main where exchanged and produced data can be opportunely exploited by a set of applications and services in order to make the environment smart. This paper proposes a new approach to represent and manage the evolution of context instances that is driven by events, adopting a graph structure. As a case of study, we propose an example of context evolution in an art exhibition within the Maschio Angioino castle, in Naples (Italy).
