COMPASS2008: The Smart Dining Service

The Compass2008 project is a sino-german cooperation, aiming at integrating advanced information technologies to create a high-tech information system that helps visitors to access location-sensitive information services during the 2008 Olympic Games in their preferred language, offering a variety of service-adaptive modalities available on the mobile devices. In this paper, we demonstrate one of the COMPASS2008 services, the Smart Dining Service, to showcase the new interaction concepts between multimodality, multilingual and location-sensitive information search.
