An Architecture of Business Process Driven Application Integration in Pervasive Computing Environments

Pervasive computing brings a lots challenge for software architecture. This paper improves an architecture of business process driven application integration, towards the pervasive computing environments. Firstly, in the architecture, there is no central management organization, and application nodes are equal and autonomic and can communicate with each other directly; second, the application node which accepts the request is the manager, and every node have the ability to select next executive node; then, when designating the work, it considers users' personal preference and context; finally, users can ask for service through wireless devices like PDA or mobile phone. Therefore, this architecture takes a great step forward the pervasive computing environments
