Abstract

In order to counter the low efficiency problem of location-aware applications, we present planned route based interactions in this paper. The methods to acquire the planned routes of users are described, and an innovative self-reporting method is proposed. The design of information adaptation and two possible implementations in a spatial database are described. The design of human-human interactions with respect to the planned routes of users is given with three sample systems: traffic information sharing, casual chat, and audio-video sharing. Finally, we present a concrete pervasive game named Your Way Your Missions which employs the planned route based interactions.
