A Two Layer Approach for Ubiquitous Web Application Development

The growing device diversity and anywhere/anytime nature of internet access calls for a new way of engineering web applications. These new paradigms introduce the need for context-awareness and personalization. In this paper we give the basis for two methods that can be used to bring web applications to almost every device and customise an application to the browsing user’s profile and his device. We also present the basic design of a platform that interferes in the different layers of a web application and uses a modular approach and reflection as the basis for ubiquitous web applications.
