Abstract
Recently, industry has adopted multimodal, context-aware applications. However, addressing various modalities on heterogeneous platforms implies a demanding development effort. Therefore, we present a task-centric methodology and a tool chain leveraging the development of adaptive multimodal applications.
In order to improve efficiency the tool chain is based on the Model Driven Architecture approach emphasizing two key principles: model-to-model transformations and tool integration.
This work was supported in part by the German Ministry of Eduction and Research (BMBF). The project executing organization is the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
