Abstract

In a competitive world where enterprises have to continually release new and better services, there is a constant need to assimilate new capabilities and extend software applications functionalities. Nowadays these requirements have been translated into mobile environments, making the extension of mobile applications a challenge from the scalability perspective. In this paper, a mobile and flexible software architecture is presented. It allows the integration of third party mobile services to the developed platform, making the extension of a mobile application a dynamic task. By doing so, users can consume a service from their mobile devices through a dynamic user interface. This flexible architecture permits the aggregation of services without having to modify the mobile system, and therefore, it increases the application scalability and practicality in terms of its deployment and maintenance.
