| Summary: | Despite the tremendous number of mobile applications (apps) that developed using various implementation forms
such as component, service, or app, user’s needs are unlike each other. Besides, mobile devices are characterized
by heterogeneous software and hardware configurations. Developing customized mobile applications needs to
explore and incorporate new entities in the surrounding user context. Besides, involving the existing
heterogeneous entities might benefit in developing context-aware mobile apps. Thus, a significant challenge in the
development process of mobile apps is the deployment of these applications in the heterogeneous devices
available on the market. To tackle these challenges, there is a need for a composition process to reuse and utilize
the existing heterogeneous entities to develop mobile apps according to user’s requirements. Hence, the behavior
of the desired apps can be customized according to the user context information. This paper addresses the issue of
discovering, integrating and reusing the existing heterogeneous software entities in developing a customized
mobile application. In this paper we propose framework for context-aware mobile apps composition process
based-on existing heterogeneous software entities. |
