selecting at least one event requiring a notification from among events included in a user'"'"'s schedule;

dynamically determining at least one of a notification generation option, a notification generation time, a notification content, a task listed in the notification, and a notification recipient of the at least one selected event, with reference to context information for generation of the notification; and

generating the notification of the event whose notification is determined to be generated, with reference to the determined at least one of the notification generation time, the notification content, the task according to the notification, and the notification recipient.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the context information comprises at least one of information on a local time zone of the user, information on a current time, information on the user'"'"'s current location, information on traffic conditions, information on the user'"'"'s behavioral patterns, demographic information of the user, information on an event organizer, information on priorities of event attendees, and information on a time or location of the event.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the information on the user'"'"'s behavioral patterns comprises at least one of information on transportation means or travel routes preferred by the user, information on a travel time to a location of an event most recently registered by the user, information on the user'"'"'s pattern of event registration, information on the user'"'"'s frequencies of event registration by attendees or event types, information on hours or places preferred by the user, information on event types preferred by the user, information on other users preferred by the user, information on the user'"'"'s activities on social networking services (SNS), and information on the context of chats the user has had with other users.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein, in the step of generating the notification, a notification for recommending at least one subsequent event associated with the at least one selected event is generated.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein, in the step of generating the notification, a notification for notifying that information created in the at least one selected event is to be shared between users who have attended the at least one selected event is generated.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein, in the step of generating the notification, a notification containing information on the user'"'"'s response to an invitation to the at least one selected event is provided.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium for storing a computer program for executing the method of claim 1.
