Abstract
Some challenges in the mobile grid environments are not handled by some related works, for example, adapting to heterogeneous interfaces of different mobile devices (PDAs and cellular) for submission and monitoring of applications in grid environments. This article presents an approach that employs the workflow concept for providing automated and adapted features for executing applications in grid mobile configurations. The approach, coined as SuMMIT, enabled to consume less battery energy of PDAs and more agility for submitting and monitoring applications in comparison with some related works. In addition, the SuMMIT environment provides an execution flow adjustment, in case of disconnection, matching requirements of submitted application and options defined by the user. The SuMMIT also has adapted and optimized characteristics according to some limitations and problems found in different devices.
