Abstract

The development of context-aware application has been the subject of many research works in ubiquitous computing. Nowadays, there is a lack of generic approaches for formalizing the activity of development for this type of applications, and consequently this activity is very cumbersome and time consuming. This work proposes to use Model Driven Development to promote reuse, adaptability and interoperability in the development of context-aware applications. Through the separation of concerns in individual models and transformation techniques, context can be modeled and adapted independently of business logic and platform details. This paper presents an architecture and a metamodel for model driven development of context-aware applications. The architecture illustrates the different steps and techniques involved in the process of development. The metamodel provides a formal representation of contextual information.
