By considering modelling and reasoning approaches for context-sensitive systems from a broad range of areas, the workshop will facilitate the sharing of problems, techniques, and solutions. The workshop covers different understandings of what context is, different approaches to modelling context, mechanisms and techniques for structured storage of contextual information, effective ways to retrieve it, and methods for enabling integration of context and application knowledge.

MRC provides a forum to exchange and discuss issues and ideas in a friendly, cooperative environment. The focus of this years workshop is on commercialising context and the impact of this on context models. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Generic and specific context models

* Explicit representations of context

* Representation of and reasoning with uncertainty

* Retrieval of context and context information

* Context-based retrieval and reasoning

* Socio-technical issues

* Approaches to the integration of findings from the social sciences

* Context awareness and context-sensitivity

* Context awareness in applications

* Evaluation of context-aware applications

* Explanation and context

* Mobile context

* Issues of time, dynamics and information ageing

* Context focusing and context switching

* Context management
