The high heterogeneity and variability of mobile computing environments can adversely affect the performance of applications running in these environments. To tackle this problem, adaptation techniques can be exploited. Adaptation based on code mobility is a possible solution, as it allows to dynamically modify the load of the hosting nodes and the internode traffic, to adapt to the changing characteristics of computing nodes and network links. In this paper we propose a modeling framework to analyze the performance effectiveness of code mobility based adaptation in a mobile computing environment. A distinguishing feature of our framework is the modeling of both physical and logical mobility as something that can be "plugged" into a pre-existing architecture model, to ease the analysis of the performance impact of both different physical mobility scenarios, and of different adaptation strategies based on code mobility. To enhance the framework usability, we have adopted UML as modeling language, remaining fully compliant with the latest UML 2.0 specification and with the standard UML "Profile for Schedulability, Performance and Time Specification".
