Ouahiba Fouial, Katia Abi Fadel, Isabelle M. Demeure · 2002
Adaptability is one of the challenges of today’s mobile distributed systems. In this paper, we identify the issues relative to adaptability in a service provisioning context. We introduce an adaptive service provision platform for mobile computing environments capable of supporting flexible Value Added Service (VAS) provision to mobile users. We describe how this platform can support service adaptability to user profile and preferences, to terminal and network capabilities and, to user location.
