Context Information is the information that is necessary for systems to be more adaptable to different contexts within the real world.

• Examples:

  • Traffic Management: MIM 1 can aggregate and standardise data from various sensors (traffic cameras, weather stations, vehicle GPS systems) into a unified format. This enables traffic management systems to automatically adjust signal timings and offer route recommendations to drivers based on real-time traffic conditions, weather, and events, thus reducing congestion and enhancing traffic flow.

  • Energy Management: MIM 1 can facilitate the integration of sensor data across public buildings to dynamically adjust heating, cooling, and lighting based on occupancy and weather conditions, significantly reducing energy waste and operational costs.

  • Public Safety: By integrating and standardising data from multiple sources, including CCTV and emergency alerts, MIM 1 enhances real-time response capabilities, enabling faster deployment of emergency services during critical events, thus improving public safety and resilience.
