Abstract

Situation awareness is considered as an approach to model user context in ubiquitous information services. Such services can intelligently infer knowledge about user situation. Moreover, situational reasoning is attained taking into consideration similarity-based approaches. This paper proposes approximate decision making about situational similarity using conceptual modelling, ontological representation, and, fuzzy logic inference
