Abstract

The processing capabilities of current smartphones have increased significantly. We propose a distributed and collaborative context prediction approach that exclusively uses current smartphones to automatically collect, process and predict contexts of users. To predict a user's next context, not only her context history is utilised but also context histories of other users are used. The communication between the smartphones of the users is realised using peer-2-peer. Therefore, no centralised server unit is needed to process the context information of the users externally. We provide a proof-of-concept implementation and present experimental results that demonstrate the practicality of the proposed architecture.
