ABSTRACT
With the arrival of the age of wireless technology, there has been a notable increase in consumer use of m-commerce applications. Among extensively developed mobile services, as a new concept, situation dependent services have been focused as one of powerful drivers for the whole m-commerce market. But related studies mainly concentrate on introduction and discussion from the standpoint of conceptual and organizational aspects, the implementation of the situation dependency concept is still a challenge in terms of its technical realization aspect. The purpose of this research is to present a logical approach for implementing intelligent situation dependent services in the area of mobile services. In this study, a new architecture is proposed based on the situation calculus. On the basis of the architecture, mobile users can call on server to offer situation dependent services that dynamically respond to their changing situations. In order to show how the architecture works, a case is implemented to demonstrate feasibility of the proposed logical approach.
