Abstract
Although wireless networks and mobile devices become popular these days, the diversity of mobile devices and unsteadiness of wireless networks still cause software development much trouble. Thus, when developing a mobile application, developers are forced to expose to these problems and to be familiar with these technologies and therefore it will spend a lot of time to write a mobile application. Furthermore, a mobile application often needs to be ported to different platform (for example from Java to .NET) which is also burdensome. In order to overcome these problems, the author proposes an adaptive framework to help developers build mobile application effortlessly and rapidly. The mobile application developed on this framework can run in different devices and operating system, so developers does not need to worry about portability. As a result, a mobile application developed on this framework can enjoy the benefit of “write once, run everywhere, and access any services.”
