We propose a solution that is based on extensions to the Context Interchange framework. This approach provides mechanisms for capturing semantics using ontology and temporal context. It also provides a mediation service that automatically resolves semantic conflicts. We show the feasibility of this approach by demonstrating a prototype that implements a subset of the proposed extensio
