ABSTRACT

Many GIS (Geographic Information Systems) based routing applications use single-dimensional spatial-aware algorithms such as shortest route, or fastest route. However, ideally, we often want to route goods or people based upon a multiple dimensional or multi-valued goal such as some compromise between a short route, a fast route and a more scenic route. This makes location deviations of mobile user routing more complex to handle because of the interplay between multiple value objectives or goals. In this paper, a reflective context-aware model is proposed, built upon a multi-valued objective routing algorithm which is able to adapt to dynamic environment changes in a more flexible and robust way.
