Abstract

This paper introduces So Smart, a framework developed to provide social-context awareness to networks of everyday objects, making them able to infer and perform social goals according to their social connection, preferences and needs. We consider context awareness as the recognition of surrounding social interactions and structures, with a particular attention to user's preferences and features inside the network in order to provide smart objects with a more comprehensive understanding of the environment. The main contribution of this work is to provide a model for social context-awareness and reasoning using an ontology-based context modeling, a user and group model, and exploiting social networks.
