The delivery of real-time, context-aware, and personalized information to end-users for mobility support is a high-priority objective in improving mobility services efficiency and effectiveness. This chapter aims at providing an analysis of existing studies in the field of context awareness research targeted to the infomobility application domain. The authors propose an evaluation framework for infomobility services based on the elicitation of context information items and high-level requirements. The framework is applied to some relevant state-of-the art research works among personal navigation systems, infomobility service integration frameworks and context-aware location-based communication platforms. Evaluation results are discussed in order to highlight open research challenges in the infomobility application domain.

Abstract
The delivery of real-time, context-aware, and personalized information to end-users for mobility support is a high-priority objective in improving mobility services efficiency and effectiveness. This chapter aims at providing an analysis of existing studies in the field of context awareness research targeted to the infomobility application domain. The authors propose an evaluation framework for infomobility services based on the elicitation of context information items and high-level requirements. The framework is applied to some relevant state-of-the art research works among personal navigation systems, infomobility service integration frameworks and context-aware location-based communication platforms. Evaluation results are discussed in order to highlight open research challenges in the infomobility application domain.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
