Abstract

The emergence of networked context-aware mobile computing appliances potentially offers opportunities for remote access to huge online information resources. Information access in context-aware information appliances can utilize existing techniques developed for effective information retrieval and information filtering; however, practical physical and operational features of these devices and the availability of context information itself suggest that the document selection process should make use of this contextual data.
