An Architectural Model for Applications Based on Mobile Services

Service-oriented computing (SOC) is the computational paradigm that utilizes services as fundamental elements to develop applications/solutions. To build a service model, SOC relies on the service-oriented architecture (SOA), which is a way of reorganizing software applications and infrastructures in a set of interacting services. This paper proposes an architectural model that separates in layers the abstraction levels needed for construction of mobile services platforms. Each layer has been defined based on SOC requirements and deliver functionality to create autonomous reconfiguring distributed systems.
