Abstract: In this article, the authors present a design and implementation of a context-based network access mechanism for eliciting context information and adapting this information with mobile applications' network access management. This paper proposes a multi-criteria decision-making algorithm based on fuzzy analytic hierarchy process that allows for integrating four context criteria, namely location, network, time, and speed, with network access service management of mobile applications at run-time. This article evaluates the proposed mechanism in the Android operating system running on handheld smart phone devices. Evaluation results have revealed the significance of fuzzy analytic hierarchy process method in providing network access management features based on real-time assessment of user context.
