Abstract :
Context-aware mobile technology has garnered lot of attention in recent times. Context-aware applications are self-regulating and self-monitoring. Building a context-awareness framework is a serious challenge. This paper presents an idea for the development of a context-aware mobile framework. The process of proposing such a framework is quite a challenging task because of the fact that this framework should consider many context-aware factors like location, temperature, time, noise levels etc. Context-aware applications have not been able to venture into every common man’s arena. This paper has tried to make a sincere attempt to devise a model that will help to cater to all the requirements of building a context-aware mobile framework.
