摘要: An obvious prerequisite for mobile computing devices is the ability to adapt different environments. Otherwise are forced carry with them everything they may eventually need during their operational life time. This neither desirable nor feasible, thereby hinting at dynamic adaptation. The idea would be let environment proactive and application rather than forcing itself every possible environment. In this paper we present a platform doing exactly this. Applications running on our modified JVM can extended run time new functionality. Through platform, acquire on-the-fly any functionality extension work properly in given extensions local space: active only specific site just needed. used both centralized settings (with base station providing extensions) or self configuring mode (extensions provided by peers). describe how use it report one of several prototypes that have been constructed.
