Abstract:

This paper describes a context modelling approach using ontologies as a formal fundament. We introduce our Aspect-Scale-Context (ASC) model and show how it is related to some other models. A Context Ontology Language (CoOL) is derived from the model, which may be used to enable context-awareness and contextual interoperability during service discovery and execution in a proposed distributed system architecture. A core component of this architecture is a reasoner which infers conclusions about the context based on an ontology built with CoOL.
