Abstract

We envision next-generation Field Workers to use interactive Web applications deployed on sophisticated mobile devices in order to access remote services and data in support of their business processes. Engineering such applications requires combining services computing with mobile computing and end-user oriented Web application development. In this position paper, we identify the main challenges in this context, and propose a preliminary platform architecture for application deployment on Field Worker devices that addresses some of these challenges.
