Context Awareness Perspectives for Mobile Personal Media

Abstract This article reviews the ongoing evolution of context awareness technologies in mobile devices using personal media as an illustrative application domain. Augmented with metadata, files containing personal media can include significant information about the contexts they describe. the article discusses personal media applications from two different perspectives:
