Abstract

The creation of applications able to be executed in ubiquitous environments, involves a better consideration of the execution context in order to ensure service continuity. In component-based software engineering, applications are built by assembling existing components. For deploying such applications in ubiquitous environments, its components must be able to adapt themselves to the current context. To deal with this issue, we propose in this paper an approach aiming at reconfiguring the component structure to allow a flexible deployment of its services according to its use context. This adaptation focusing on the service continuity, consists of determining a structure adapted to the execution context. Then, the current structure is automatically reconfigured and the generated components are redeployed.
