Abstract
A versatile middleware for the development of context sensitive Web applications is presented which is supposed to free developers from the great effort of managing several context dimensions such as location and time. The expected benefits are shorter time to market and reduced development costs. The middleware is currently employed in the course of the development of a prototypical campus information system at the University of Klagenfurt.
