Abstract: 
 
Recent years have seen a confluence of two major trends – the increase of mobile devices such as smart phones as the primary access point to networked information and the rise of social media platforms that connect people. Their convergence supports the emergence of a new class of context-aware geosocial networking applications. While existing systems focus mostly on location...]]></description>

The popularity of Internet-enabled mobile technology allows people to participate in many data gathering tasks such as making scientific observation, responding to regional polls, and collecting location-specific information such as parking availability and road conditions. Reaching users on their mobile devices poses challenges regarding appropriate user selection and user's state to respond to any data queries.

  <description><![CDATA[Conflict management in context-aware computing is getting more significant
attention from researchers as ubiquitous computing environments take into
account multiple users. For multi-user ubiquitous computing environments,
conflicts among user's contexts need to be detected and resolved. For
this, application developers or end-users specify conflicts situations,
and the underlying ubiquitous computing middleware detects and resolve
conflicts between applications when one of the conflict...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Wearable computing devices like Google Glass are at the forefront of technological evolution in smart devices. The ubiquitous and oblivious nature of photography using these devices has made people concerned about their privacy in private and public settings. The Face-Block (http://face-block.me/) project protects the privacy of people around Glass users by making pictures taken by the latter, Privacy-Aware. Through sharing of privacy policies, users can choose whether or not to be included i...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Our individual privacy is increasingly at risk in a world full of smart mobile devices. The situation will only get worse with the rise of an Internet of Things. One way to address this problem is through the use of systems that better understand their context and whose information gathering and sharing behaviors can be controlled or influenced by context-aware policies. We illustrate the problem and an approach to address it through recent work on FaceBlock, a project that protects the priva...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Modern smartphones are capable of gathering massive amounts of data about a user and her context. While this data is mostly utilized for providing services that are better suited to the user, user data and context leakage from smart phones can have disastrous results. This is especially true as most enterprises are going to a Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) model for mobile devices such as smartphones. We recognize this change as a potential threat to data privacy, both of the user and also of c...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Due to a lack of pre-deployed infrastructure, nodes in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are required to relay data packets for other nodes to enable multi-hop communication between nodes that are not in the radio range with each other. However, whether for selfish or malicious purposes, a node may refuse to cooperate during the network operations or even attempt to interrupt them, both of which have been recognized as misbehaviors. Significant research efforts have been made to address the pro...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Entity linking refers to the task of assigning mentions in documents to their
corresponding knowledge base entities. Entity linking is a central step in
knowledge base population.  Current entity linking systems do not explicitly
model the discourse context in which the communication occurs. Nevertheless,
the notion of shared context is central to the linguistic theory of pragmatics
and plays a crucial role in Grice’s cooperative communication principle.
Furthermore, modeling context ...]]></description>

Context-aware systems exploit the use of situational information, or context, to provide relevant information and services to users. A great challenge remains in defining an architecture that supports context-aware systems. Critical research issues include modeling and reasoning (how to represent contextual information for machine processing and reasoning), knowledge sharing (how to enable agents to acquire consistent knowl...]]></description>

Their convergence supports the emergence of a new class of context-aware geosocial networking applications. While existing systems focus mostly on location, our work centers on models for representing and reasoning about a more inclusive and higher-level notion of context...]]></description>
