Application framework for multi platform mobile application software development

A time-to-market of mobile application software is usually very short and it causes unstructured mobile application software. In this paper, we defined a common architecture for mobile application software which is named as Application Framework to support agile software development. The framework is defined following PIM (Platform Independent Model) in MDD (Model Driven Development)[1] to satisfy the need of supportability from one mobile application to various mobile platforms. Transformation rules each mobile platforms are also offered to generate Java source code for mobile platforms automatically (as PSM, Platform Specific Model) such as J2ME and WIPI.
