Applications of a context-management system

In ubiquitous computing, the user will be interrupted in performing a task only if the information is relevant to the task or highly important in the situation to justify the interrupt. The information selection and presentation therefore should be adapted to the user and his current context of use. Nowadays, uncounted Content-Management Systems provide access to a large amount of information, but without context, information is just data. This paper introduces Context-Management as a new approach for the design of contextaware systems in ubiquitous computing. As a proof of concept we illustrate three prototypical implementations of contextualized information systems in different applications domains and decompose the underlying framework into its foundational components
