Architectures For Context Aware Services

In this paper, we describe our application framework (Multi-Site Navigator) for delivering context-aware services. The application framework is based on our middleware solution, named context Data Manager (XDM), using DHTs technologies as underlying substrate for integrating different contextual data generators or sensors.
