+\begin_layout Standard
+A context-aware API has been developed for the Android platform.
+ This was the primary purpose and output of this project, and it has been
+ evaluated to perform to an acceptable accuracy.
+ While not all of the evaluation targets were met, a number of these were
+ conscious decisions to deviate from the previous specification in response
+ to a change in development method or change in target audience.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+In developing the API, an algorithm to classify accelerometer data using
+ an extremely small set of extracted features was devised.
+ This is a significant deviation from established works in the field, which
+ mostly attempt to use as many features as possible in an attempt to increase
+ accuracy.
+ 
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+In addition to the main API, the project has also delivered a set of application
+s built on top of it, most notably the context aware home screen.
+ This clearly demonstrates how context-aware systems can enhance a user's
+ experience by tailoring content and behaviour to the current context.
