Abstract
Nowadays, communication engineering technology is merging with the Internet of Things (IoT), which consists of numerous connected devices (referred to as things) around the world. Many researchers have shown significant growth of sensor deployments for multiple smart engineering technologies, such as smart-healthcare, smart-industries, smart-cities, and smart-transportation, etc. In such intelligent engineering technologies, sensors continuously generate a bunch of messages in the network. To enhance the value of the data in the messages, we must know the actuality of the data embedded inside the messages. For this purpose, the contextual information of the data creates a vital challenge. Recently, context-aware computing has emerged to be fruitful in dealing with sensor information. In the ubiquitous computing domain, location is commonly considered one of the most essential sources of context. However, whenever users or applications are concerned with objects, and their site or spatial relationships, location models or spatial models are necessary to form a model of the environment. This paper investigates the area of context-aware messaging and addressing services in diverse IoT applications. The paper examines the notion of context and the use of context within the data exchanged by the sensors in an IoT application for messaging and addressing purposes. Based on the importance and need for context of the information, we identify three critical categories of new IoT applications for context-aware messaging and addressing services: emergency applications, applications for guiding and reminding, and social networking applications. For this purpose, a representative range of systems is reviewed according to the application type, the technology being used, their architecture, the context information, and the services they provide. This survey assists the work of defining an approach for context-aware messaging services domain by discovering the area of context-aware messaging.
Highlights
Introduction and BackgroundToday, information engineering technology (IET) has entered almost every facet of our lives in a wide variety of ways with the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT)
We describe context-aware messaging in social applications depending on the complexity of the context used without considering the social relation as context information as the following: 2.3.1
The objective of this review is to inspect the notion of context-awareness and its association with mobile computing messaging applications to describe a general approach for a context-awareness domain
Summary
Information engineering technology (IET) has entered almost every facet of our lives in a wide variety of ways with the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) With this emergence, information has become more available to users through the IET. Mobile CET permits humans to communicate and socialize among themselves regardless of their location or position [3] This rapid growth of IoT-enabled applications generates a huge amount of information, which brings a challenge of a new era of information handling—that is the big data era [4]. IoT-based big data are exposed to several challenges, such as security exposures and threats like eavesdropping and data modification, etc Such exposures are amplified due to the dynamic and heterogeneous-information nature of the IoT applications. It offers pertinent and expressive information, named “contextual information,” and is more explainable and reasonable [6]
