Addressing the problem of location inference, we expand the design space by proposing to employ rule-based programming techniques. Based on position coordinates as well as data gathered by environmental sensors, either a precise location or an abstract location class can be deduced. Both types of location may then be utilized to trigger services in an event-centric manner.}, file = {http://cst.mi.fu-berlin.de/papers/hahn06applicability.pdf}, keywords = {Location-Based Services, Rule-Based Programming, Location Inference}, slides = {http://cst.mi.fu-berlin.de/papers/hahn06applicability_slides.pdf}, theme = {wsn|prog} }
