Abstract: The growing adoption of wireless handheld devices creates new opportunities for personalized mobile commerce, yet delivering relevant, timely service matches remains problematic due to limited display sizes. This paper presents an intelligent context-aware multi-agent architecture designed to push tailored product recommendations directly to mobile shoppers. The engine parses user demographic records, current GPS location parameters, and real-time local weather profiles to dynamically construct individualized preference trees. Field experiments involving 200 active users demonstrated that our personalization model yielded a 22.4% higher click-through conversion rate compared to non-contextual advertising networks. The runtime tracking system processes complex contextual rules in under 18 ms, minimizing processing demands on embedded mobile hardware platforms. This framework sets a blueprint for modern location-based marketing tools.
