Abstract

Context-aware applications have been subject of many research works. The majority focus on the development of ad hoc architectures and legacy artifacts to capture and to adapt context information. We provide interoperability, adaptability and reuse to Context-aware applications by the employment of the Model Driven Development approach. We have defined a well detailed context metamodel and we have also developed a Context-aware Service Oriented Architecture (CSOA) using MDA principles and based on EDOC-ECA viewpoints. EDOC-ECA owns distributed characteristics and it is closer to Web Services for mapping specifications. A mapping from CSOA to WSDL metamodel is also presented in this paper.
