Abstract

The aim of the project is to explore novel approaches, based on neural nets, to the detection and manipulation of contextual information to support proactive computing applications, and to make the results available as part of a more extensive toolkit for ubiquitous and proactive computing. The project will investigate the effectiveness of neural networks as part of a "contextual middleware".

Keywords:context management, neural networks, proactive computing
