| Abstract | Building smart meeting rooms requires the support of a computing system architecture. In this paper, we describe the Context Broker Architecture (CoBrA), a broker-centric agent architecture for pervasive context-aware systems. CoBrA exploits the Web Ontology Lan-guage OWL for supporting knowledge sharing and data fusion, uses logic inferences for resolving and detect-ing inconsistent context knowledge, and provides users with a policy language to control their private informa-tion. Central to CoBrA is an intelligent broker agent that maintains a share model of context for all agents, services, and devices in the space, and protects users’ privacy by enforcing the policy rules that they have de-fined. We also describe the use of CoBrA ontologies, context reasoning mechanisms, and privacy protection in a smart meeting room system called EasyMeeting. |
