A reusable architecture with product line technique applied to context sensitive service

Abstract

In ubiquitous environments, the content adaptable services can be dynamically provided to adapt the frequent changes of contexts. These services have common things that the kinds of context factors are limited to ubiquitous environment, though the contexts are flexible. To reuse service architecture can be reasonable for effective adaptable service. In this paper, we propose a reusable architecture with product line techniques for content adaptable applications in ubiquitous environment. It can describe reusable points for service and optimization policies. Description of reusable points is to define variation points and their variants and to find out the dependencies between them. Optimization policies are to build the variant selection strategies. These can accomplish to define the decision model based on content adaptable service, and to help the reuse more effective.
