Architectural and Implementation Issues for a Context-Awar Hypermedia Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present the rationale and the main components of a modular and extensible architecture for building and deploying mobile hypermedia software. Using some simple archetypical examples we show how to provide context-aware assistance to the mobile user, as he explores the physical world. We also show that this kind of software systems poses strong requirements on supporting software (such as Web browsers) and we explain how to provide a modular software substrate to support these requirements. This paper shows how to use some simple concepts to develop complex context-aware systems, which are evolvable and easy to extend.

متن کاملA Model-Based Approach to Hypermedia Design
This paper introduces the MESH approach to hypermedia design, which combines established entityrelationship and object-oriented abstractions with proprietary concepts into a formal hypermedia data model. Uniform layout and link typing specifications can be attributed and inherited in a static node typing hierarchy, whereas both nodes and links can be submitted dynamically to multiple complement...
متن کاملContext-Aware Services for Physical Hypermedia Applications
In this paper we present an approach for designing and deploying context-aware services in the context of physical hypermedia applications, those applications in which mobile users explore real and digital objects using the hypermedia paradigm. We show how to adapt the objects’ response to the user’s navigation context by changing the role these objects play in the user’s travel. We first motiv...
متن کاملA Model-Driven Development Process and Runtime Platform for Adaptive Composite Web Applications
So far, little research has addressed composition and integration at the presentation layer of web applications. Service-oriented architectures provide uniform models for encapsulation and reuse of data and application logic in the form of web services, but this paradigm has not yet been applied to the presentation layer, impeding a universal composition of web applications. Thus, UIs are usual...
