Multi-Context Systems provide a formal basis for the integration of knowledge from different knowledge sources. Yet, it is easy to conceive of applications where not all knowledge sources may be used together all the time. We present a natural extension of Multi-Context Systems by adding the notion of activation rules that allows modeling the applicability or relevance of contexts depending on beliefs in the various contexts and their mutual dependencies. We give a short account on possible consequence relations for Multi-Context System with Activation Rules and discuss a potential application in information retrieval.
