Context-awareness and personalisation are important concepts that are essential cornerstones in future systems providing pervasive services. These two concepts are closely interrelated and dependent on each other for fully functional context-aware personalised services. Daidalos is a European research project in the area of 3G and beyond, which aims to combine heterogeneous networks in a transparent and seamless way, and develop a pervasive environment for applications and end-users on top of this. The first phase of implementation has produced a basic system that is currently being developed further. This paper outlines the basic pervasive service platform architecture and describes the context-awareness and personalisation features that are being implemented in Daidalos.
