Context-aware social networks mashup: A personalized web perspective

Web2.0 has ushered a new era of Internet where social networks offer numerous services that can be consumed in a ubiquitous manner. In this paper, we introduce a context-aware social network framework that can dynamically mashup a person's social networks. The context-awareness is realized by combining a novel real estate based layout management system and sensory data coming from one's body sensor network and the ambient environment. We finally present the design and architecture of the proposed system and the preliminary test results.
