This paper presents a location model for location-aware and user-aware services in smart environments. It can be dynamically organized like a tree based on geographical containment, such as that in a user–room–floor–building hierarchy and each node in the tree can be constructed as an executable software component. The model is unique in existing approaches because it enables location-aware services to be managed without any database servers, it can be managed by multiple computers, and it can provide a unified view of the locations of not only physical entities and spaces, including users and objects, but also computing devices and services. A prototype implementation of this approach was constructed on a Java-based mobile agent system. This paper presents the rationale, design, implementation, and applications of the prototype system.
