Abstract

In mobile and pervasive computing systems, the ability of an application to adapt its behavior in response to a changing environment is essential. In this paper we propose a new class of context-aware architectural connectors that enable software designers to incorporate context-aware aspects into a software architecture design. These context-aware connectors must also be composable to allow multiple types of context to be applied to a single architectural connection. We introduce our notion of context-aware connectors and describe some intended uses.
