Abstract

In this paper we describe the architectural andfunctional characteristics of Bus Catcher, a contextsensitive prototype system for public transportation users.Bus Catcher assists mobile users in planning their busrides by providing timely and accurate information aboutcurrent bus locations and estimated arrival times. Acomplete report on the implementation together with apreliminary evaluation of the system is provided in thispaper.
