public class ContextProviderType
extends ManagedIndividual

An enumeration for indicating the type of a context provider, which may be a controller, a gauge, or a reasoner. A controller is a context provider that has the control over some context element and hence can report about changes in its/their state(s) or answer queries about that. A gauge is a sensor wrapper; sensors measure real things, such as weight, temperature, the angle to a satellite, etc. A reasoner uses different sources (including other context providers) and infers the state of a context element using different methods, such as aggregation, statistical analysis, and logical deduction, to name a few.
