Abstract
This paper describes the context-aware mobile tourist application COMPASS that adapts its services to the user’s needs based on both the user’s interests and his current context. In order to provide context-aware recommendations, a recommender system has been integrated with a context-aware application platform. We describe how this integration has been accomplished and how users feel about such an adaptive tourist application.
