The architecture design of a cross-domain context management system

A new context management framework, which supports the interaction between different domain context managers, is proposed. Two different context producerconsumer patterns are defined to support context-aware applications. To deal with the mobile entity problem in crossdomain context sharing, a transparent query mechanism that enables applications to obtain context information about mobile entities from remote domains is presented. The capability of our framework is demonstrated through a user scenario. Keywords-Cross-Domain; Pervasive Computing; Architecture; Context Management; Remote Context Querying
