MobJeX: A Declaratively Configurable Java Based Framework for Resource Aware Object Mobility

MobJeX (Mobile Java Objects) is a Java based resource aware adaptive code mobility framework that is currently under development. MobJeX differs from its predecessors such as Sumatra [1] and FarGo [2,3] by providing support for the transparent distribution of application code to client devices in a heterogenous Next Generation Internet (NGI) environment [4]. This paper briefly discusses the architecture of MobJeX.
