Context-aware Dvb-h Service Software Framework Juha-matti Lehtinen

This book presents a context-aware DVB-H service software framework that was developed and ii) a reference implementation, which was actualized to validate the framework design. The fundamental research question was: in what way can context-awareness and personalization be utilized in recommending DVB-H-mediated content to users. The developed framework was designed based on the requirements derived from earlier work related to context-aware system architectures and on guidelines related to designing context-aware mobile services and applications. DVB-H-specific context-awareness problems were considered to complete the design. The functioning of the reference implementation was confirmed with test scenarios, which validate the set requirements and provide valuable insights for the future devel-opers of Context-Aware DVB-H Service. The scenarios validate that it is possible and even beneficial to create a context-aware mobile recommendation service, whose tar-get content delivery medium is DVB-H.
