Middleware Frameworks for Ubiquitous Computing Environment

For decades, software engineering continued to be an evolving discipline. Software developers are still after software development approaches that achieve reusability at more levels of abstraction. This is particularly true for developing applications for the enterprise; where business collaborations are a central concern. Software designers need a modeling framework that enables process engineering by assembling reusable services. Moreover, the development approach must enable parts of the enterprise to react quickly and reliably to changes in requirements and in available technologies.
