Towards User-Centered Distributed Mashups

Published: 01 July 2014 Publication History

Abstract

Today's availability of web-enabled and mobile devices has led to a paradigm shift in the development of web applications. They are no longer restricted to a single device that is used by a single user. Future web applications are distributed across the borders of heterogeneous devices as a set of interconnected components using a message brokering system. With this approach new challenges arise, e. g., the inclusion of dynamically available devices during the application's load time or the discovery and integration of their capabilities (sensors, communication interfaces or installed apps etc.) at run time. In this paper, we present our ongoing work towards a distributed client-server runtime environment (CSR) that should support the dynamic distribution and user-centered adaptation of composite multi-device web applications -- denoted as distributed mashups.
