Abstract	This paper provides a snapshot of the BlueSpace project at the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center. The goal of BlueSpace is to research the issues associated with next-generation workspaces in which integrated electronic transdurcers, displays and network appliances are used to augment personalization and context awareness. Toward this goal, we have constructed a full-scale prototype office and implemented several applications, which include situation-triggered environmental adjustments and context-aware event notification. These applications use a set of infrastructure services based on document technology (XML) for sharing contextual information. The prototype is viewed as a sandbox to which additional technologies and interesting applications can be added and evaluated in the future.
