Location-dependent information service requires an abilily to change both the information and functions provided to the mobile client according to user location and time of access. This paper describes a new framework for location-dependent information service, called the mobile object model. In mobile object model, a service consists of objects that contain both information and functions. These objects, called mobile objects, are managed as distributed objects. Mobile objects are recomposed to a composite object according to user status dynamically. This composite object is then executed to realize location-dependent infomation service. We also propose an architecture based on the model. The architecture reduces the load of network transmission and the amount of CPU power used by the mobile client. Finally, we present a prototype system developed on the called "LODIS".
