Abstract
This thesis provides solutions to the question, how the successfully deployed publish/ subscribe paradigm can be extended to serve as a middleware platform for the use in conjunction with pervasive computing systems. It does so by proposing concrete architectures, algorithms, and frameworks.

Location-dependent query processing: Where we are and where we are heading

TL;DR: The technological context (mobile computing) and support middleware (such as moving object databases and data stream technology) are described, location-based services and location-dependent queries are defined and classified, and different query processing approaches are reviewed and compared.

MundoCore: A light-weight infrastructure for pervasive computing

TL;DR: MundoCore is a communication middleware specifically designed for the requirements of pervasive computing based on a microkernel design, supports dynamic reconfiguration, and provides a common set of APIs for different programming languages on a wide range of different devices.

Host groups: A multicast extension for datagram internetworks

TL;DR: This paper proposes a model of service for multicast in an internetwork, describes how this service can be used, and describes aspects of its implementation, including how it would fit into one existing internetwork architecture, namely the US DoD Internet Architecture.

The active badge location system

TL;DR: A novel system for the location of people in an office environment is described, where members of staff wear badges that transmit signals providing information about their location to a centralized location service, through a network of sensors.

The Cricket location-support system

TL;DR: The randomized algorithm used by beacons to transmit information, the use of concurrent radio and ultrasonic signals to infer distance, the listener inference algorithms to overcome multipath and interference, and practical beacon configuration and positioning techniques that improve accuracy are described.

Context-Aware Computing Applications

TL;DR: This paper describes systems that examine and react to an individual's changing context, and describes four catagories of context-aware applications: proximate selection, automatic contextual reconfiguration, contextual information and commands, and contex-triggered actions.
