Abstract

This position paper describes the role ontologies can play in Mobile Context-Aware recommender systems. In a Semantic Web vision of recommender systems, the adoption of ontologies for modeling the domain, the context and the adaptation process can contribute to tailor the right information/service to users and thus facilitate the user-system interaction and the system communication with other agents.
