Abstract

This paper discusses concepts, the design and prototype implementation of a context-aware policy system that governs mobile services visibility and execution in pervasive computing environments. We view a pervasive environment as a collection of mobile users, mobile services, contexts, policies and roles. Applicable policies are selected depending on the context of users i.e., location, activity and the user's role, and policies determine what services one can see and access in different contexts. Our approach provides a generic context-based regulated mobile services execution model, applicable to different pervasive domains (e.g., a Campus domain).
