Abstract :
This paper considers the complexity of context in mobile Information systems. Personalization is considered with context, context-awareness, mobile systems, and related research including adaptation. The principal design issues are introduced with consideration of proposed solutions and open research questions. This paper posits that the current predominance of location-based context-aware applications and systems fails to leverage the inherent richness and complexity of available contextual information and intelligent context-aware systems are required to effectively realize personalized service provision in mobile information systems.
