Abstract

New formal languages have been proposed for the specification of mobility aspects of systems and for understanding the recent devised technologies for mobile computing. In this paper we introduce MobiS, a specification language based on a tuple-spaces based model which specifies coordination bymultiset rewriting. We show how MobiS can be flexibly used to specify architectures containing mobile components and give formalization of some common mobility paradigms. We explore the styles we introduce showing how they model the software architecture of a "Purchasing System", a case study in electronic commerce.
