Distributed Java Support for Mobile Applications on Lightweight Devices

Overview Java is a particularly attractive development environment for smart mobile applications allowing for a considerably richer higher level set of development libraries and components than would be possible using traditional embedded systems languages. This paper considers two mobile user application categories. Firstly the mobile householder or office based worker or scientist who is mobile within the context of one or more building zones and who might wish to interact with devices and other users in his/her environment. Secondly the paper considers a field worker who might be a field scientist gathering data or a soldier in a battlefield scenario.
