JANUS knows where I am. It knows my address
book, calendar, and to-do list. Through the
Web, it can access maps, traffic reports,
and public schedules of events. It can check
GPS units, web cams, and other sensors. It
can produce and understand spoken language.
It can perform inferences to answer questions,
solve problems, and warn of potential
conflicts.
Can your Palm Pilot do that?
A preliminary demo will be given.
