A P2P Context Lookup Service for Multiple Smart Spaces

Abstract

Context information has emerged as an important resource to enable autonomy and flexibility of pervasive applications. The widespread use of context information necessitates efficient wide-area lookup services. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a peer-to-peer context lookup system to support contextaware applications over multiple smart spaces. Our system provides a distributed repository for context storage, and a semantic peer-to-peer network for context lookup. Collaborative context-aware applications that utilize different context information in multiple smart spaces can be easily built by invoking a pull or push service provided by our system. We outline the design and implementation of our system, and validate our system through the development of cross-domain applications
