Abstract

Travel has many situations where context-aware computing can bring important benefits. In this paper, we describe an approach for integrating context-aware computing to a mobile travel assistant. Travel plans, generated using reality [2], are enriched within compact and powerful structures, called User Task Models. These structures are transferred to a mobile device enabling the support for the traveler during his trip.
