Memory is one of the most important components of human self-consciousness. As such, it has always been the subject of scientific studies and is one of the human functionalities with the most ancient examples of prosthetic devices. In this chapter we will describe the evolution of memory prosthetic devices from the paper agenda to the modern context-aware and mobile systems, and we will describe how our system, with its capability to autonomously recognize locations where a user may efficiently perform a previously defined task, represents a significant innovation with respect to the state of the art. Finally, we will describe our experimental results and we will provide some concluding remarks.

Abstract
Memory is one of the most important components of human self-consciousness. As such, it has always been the subject of scientific studies and is one of the human functionalities with the most ancient examples of prosthetic devices. In this chapter we will describe the evolution of memory prosthetic devices from the paper agenda to the modern context-aware and mobile systems, and we will describe how our system, with its capability to autonomously recognize locations where a user may efficiently perform a previously defined task, represents a significant innovation with respect to the state of the art. Finally, we will describe our experimental results and we will provide some concluding remarks.
