Abstract
We propose a policy sharing infrastructure that enables a semantic rule created in one set of environmental, physical and contextual settings to be translated, while maintaining the underlying semantics, for use in a situation when those settings/parameters change. With an aim to enable sharing of useful intelligence described in the form of policies, we base our discussions on smart home and mobile commerce use cases.
