Paper abstract: This paper presents SAMi, a context aware Information sharing Middleware, for a dynamic pervasive
computing environment such as a Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANET). SAMi can be used by colocated
devices to share information according to the context of users and their environment. It applies
latent semantic modeling techniques and adopts techniques from service discovery to search files
efficiently. A preliminary prototype has been developed to simulate MANETs and to implement the
middleware. A number of experiments have been performed to evaluate major features of SAMi. Based
on these experiments, we found SAMi a promising middleware to facilitate information exchange among
co-located devices.
