A Model for Context Aware Mobile Payment

With the advent of mobile networks and mobile devices, mobile payment has been attractive to many ecommerce users. Mobile environment features a wide range and an increasing number of access devices and network technologies. Context-aware content/service adaptation is deemed necessary to ensure best user experience. We developed an Adaptation Management Framework (AMF) Mobile Payment Service which manages the complexity of dynamic and autonomous mobile payment service. In this Framework, a personal assistant agent is presented for automatic and intelligent payment and a model is implemented for inference and making appropriate decisions. To evaluate the suggested framework, context data were collected from content providers and a mobile network operator. The obtained results confirm the efficiency of the method. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
