Mobility exists in many shapes; when migrating a running application (code, states and data) from one device to another, one has achieved application mobility. In this article we combine this mobility type with context awareness, defining context awareness supported application mobility (CASAM) as when using context in the act of moving an application between hosts during its execution, to provide relevant information and/or services, where relevancy depends on the user's task. We identify and present five CASAM challenges, that are used to create requirements for a CASAM architecture. A proposal for an architecture, building on peer-to-peer (P2P) technology in combination with mobile IP, is then presented, addressing the identified challenges, providing a decentralized framework for global application mobility. As such, our architecture differs from earlier centralized and/or locally bound solutions for application mobility.
