Abstract

What is the meaning of "place"? How to provide a citizen with the right information anywhere, anytime? How to stimulate the growth of a user community, thus enriching the system\´s potential and the quality of the services provided? In this paper, we propose to contribute to these issues according to the artificial intelligence (AI), ubiquitous systems and community dynamics perspectives. The way we envisaged to achieve these goals was by a system which consists of a rated POI (point of interest) sharing platform accessible by several kind of mobile devices that we describe here.
