Abstract

Mobile objects and agents are used for implementing distributed applications. Both concepts allow efficient use of local resources, volatile network connectivity and more efficient communication due to appropriate migration, especially in dynamic ubiquitous environments. Mobile processes enable specifying the complete life cycle of complex mobile applications.

In this paper, we propose a mobile-process-based platform that turns ubiquitous application development into a manageable task. We advocate the use of Web services for implementing mobile processes in a heterogeneous environment. Based on previous work, we sketch a novel approach for realising mobile context-aware Web services, which implement process steps. We use a separation of state, functionality and implementation code, which enables a reduction, expansion and transformation of the service state and functionality during migration.
