Modeling user context for Interactive Context Aware TV

With the advent of ubiquitous computing environments it has become increasingly important for applications to take full advantage of Context aware computing to increase the satisfaction of the users in entertainment services. The contextual information, such as, environmental, social, task, Spatio-temporal and personal information has to be considered to offer greater services to the user without any explicit requests and to resolve conflict among multiple users. Also with the increasing amount of research on Interactive Context Aware TVs, users are interacting with them in an evermore convenient way. An efficient model for representing and capturing context for Interactive Context Aware TV is required. In this paper, we are presenting a model to define and represent Context in the user perspective for Interactive Context aware TV. The proposed Model is applicable to both single and multiuser environments.
