Abstract

Current mobile or pervasive systems possess ever increasing computing powers. A tight integration of those systems into business processes is therefore desirable. However, this requires consideration of the changing context of those systems especially when determining adequate processes for a system. This paper introduces a novel context driven approach to select processes suitable for a system's context and to integrate the system into the chosen processes. An infrastructure to implement the context driven approach is proposed and a prototype is given. A flexible implementation is accomplished using a hybrid context model, rule engines and OSGi.
