Discussion and Lessons Learned

This chapter regroups the lessons learned and the key points in the previous sections for a general discussion leading to the basis of context-based intelligent assistant systems. The key points identified previously in the text are met in Table 6.1 where we kept the original numbering and ordering of the key points in the different chapters. They are grouped in the following section in five general themes which are visualized by colors of the cells of the key point numbers in Table 6.1. Hereafter, this chapter discusses the contextual elements, first individually and second by themes. Based on the finer approach of contextual elements proposed in the first section and, thus, about context in general, the third section proposes a new insight on decisional levels in terms of context. The chapter ends on the use of context modeling and use in a future type of intelligent systems, namely the context-based intelligent assistant systems.
