Context-aware systems are a component of a ubiquitous computing or pervasive computing environment. Three important aspects of context include the following: where you are who you are with and what resources are nearby. Although location is a primary capability location-aware does not necessarily capture information of interest that are mobile or changing. Context-aware in contrast is used more generally to include nearby people devices lighting noise level network availability and even a social situation such as whether someone is with a family member or a friend from school. This book is to introduce a healthcare application named 'Care Taker' that facilitates a longitudinal study in which data is gathered from a user's smartphone over a period of time using a context aware application. This data is then analyzed to give a user actionable health related recommendations.
