| description | In this paper we describe the architecture and world model of the neXus platform for location- and context-aware applications. An important aspect of the neXus world model is that it also describes highly mobile objects, such as persons or vehicles. Therefore, we look in more detail at the management of location information in the neXus platform and the neXus Location Service, which provides for tracking the location of mobile objects with a high accuracy. In particular, we present a comparison of and simulation results for different protocols that are suitable for the frequent updating of highly accurate location information. |
