    abstract = {This paper presents the ``Solar'' system framework that allows
resources to advertise context-sensitive names and for applications to make
context-sensitive name queries. The heart of our framework is a small
specification language that allows composition of ``context-processing
operators'' to calculate the desired context. Resources use the framework to
register and applications use the framework to lookup context-sensitive name
descriptions. The back-end system executes these operators and constantly
updates the context values, adjusting advertised names and informing
applications about changes. We report experimental results from a prototype,
using a modified version of the Intentional Naming System (INS) as the core
directory service.}
