Abstract :
Driving is a complex process influenced by a wide range of factors, especially complex interactions between the driver, the vehicle and the environment. This paper aims at the representation of complex situations in smart car domain and the middleware support. A general architecture of the smart car is presented from the point of view of context-awareness. A hierarchical context model is proposed for description of the complex driving environment. A software platform is built to provide the running environment for the context model and applications. Performance evaluation shows that our approach is effective and applicable in a smart car.
