Abstract

The communication protocols in the Internet protocol stack never explicitly take into account the context information of its dynamic end-users, which affects protocol performance from the perspectives of both end-users and networks. The fast progress in context-aware computing combined with the sensing technologies greatly facilitates collecting and understanding the context information of Internet end-users. Proper utilization of the substantive and abstract end-user’s context information provides major opportunities to strengthen today’s Internet to be a context-aware, intelligent and user-centric communication system. We therefore propose a new functional module, named User-Context Module, to explicitly integrate the end-user’s context information into the established Internet protocol stack. In this chapter, we present this work in three phases: (i) the module’s architectural design; (ii) the module’s applications; (iii) a resource management framework designed for the module.
