Satisfaction of Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) in Ubiquitous Systems is specially important to guarantee the success in the development of those projects. However, the variety of existing solutions, each of them with different quality properties, together with the variability of the environments, force the designer to deal with a complicated task for their fulfillment. This paper presents the need for a design solution that enables the reconfiguration to obtain a set of adaptations for an indoor positioning service, with the purpose of satisfying the NFR that are expected at every moment. The proposal is illustrated through an application example where different scenarios are presented together with the corresponding adaptations that can be carried out.
