09.05 – 09.45 am KEYNOTE, Anind Dey

Commodity smart phones have made the visions of ubiquitous computing and context-awareness common place. We call these phones “smart phones” simply because they have a mobile operating system, not because they are smart. In fact, they are pretty dumb. They know nothing about their users, despite the fact that they spend hours a day with them. We have been using these phones to collect a wide variety of data to enable a wide variety of context-aware user experiences, focusing on experiences that require a truly “smart” phone. In this talk, I will describe the requirements and a vision for making a smart phone, and break a number of assumptions about phone usage that will impact the way we design context-enabled smart phone applications.

09.45 – 10.30 am KEYNOTE, Raja Sengupta

We discuss the representation of context in Milner’s Bigraphical Model. Computation has the semantics of the Actor model, and the two together create a hybrid called the BigActor Model. The model has an operational semantics that mirrors feedback control i.e,. computation observes the context, computes, and may then actuate it. The model reveals a basic correctness property required of context-aware programs, and we present sufficient conditions that are practical and correct. The model is implemented as a library for aerobots, and we discuss a case study executed using the implementation in the Algarve with the Air Force of Portugal. The case study tests the a drone embedded in a distributed system with drifters and satellites. The case study scenario emulates illegal bilge dumping by a ship on the high seas, and the response by maritime forces to the event.
