Camus proposal for the application front end and the user experience design

Accessibility of web sources takes users to the continuous discovery of new information. The access to a large amount of information does not always correspond to an increase of knowledge, indeed sometimes you get the opposite effect, since the user does not know how to filter the information so as to obtain the most appropriate to the current context of use. It is even more difficult with the mobile devices which have limited capabilities with respect to computers. For this reason, Context Aware Mobile Mashups (Camus) has been emerged as a solution to these issues. Camus tries to merge technologies and experiences developed in different areas of computing and aims to encourage developers to create a flexible platform that allows to generate context-aware mobile mashups. These two main themes, context-aware and mashups systems, bring about the concepts of data integration, internet services, mobile applications, web applications and application frontend. The purpose of this thesis is to propose guidelines for the user experience design for the frontends of the Camus apps that matches users' situational needs with the optimized interaction mechanism which presents the information and communicates with users in the most appropriate way to achieve a good user experience.
