I have now started on my second year as a master student at the Univeristy of Tromsø. The program is built up like this: first year = 6×10 point courses, second, and last year, one large 60 points master thesis. I am currently working on this “enormous and scary” thesis. The thesis is a small puzzle in a larger project at the university. The main focus for this project is information availability, and how we can receive information based on our current context.

My task in this project is to build a system that makes information available, and handles context awareness. I am also building a prototype application which utilizes this system. The prototype is a bus application that runs on the iPhone. The main objective of this application is to receive route information based on the users current location.

The deadline for my master is 15th May 2010. There is of course a last exam where I must defend my thesis during a public presentation and a following closed oral examination. I will put my master out in to my portfolio when its history.
