A Service Oriented Reflective Wireless Middleware

摘要

The role of middleware has become increasingly important in mobile computing, where the integration of different applications and services from different wired and wireless businesses and service providers exist. The requirements and functionalities of the wireless middleware can be achieved by Service Oriented Computing which can be an ideal paradigm for mobile services. Reflective middleware responses are optimized to changing environments and requirements. In this paper a Service Oriented Reflective Wireless Middleware (SORWiM) is proposed. It provides basic (Event, Messaging, Location, and Redirection) and composite services for efficient and reliable information discovery and dissemination in ad hoc mobile environments. One of the primary goals of this research is to investigate how the construction of mobile services can benefit from the Service-Oriented paradigm.
