Towards Introducing Code Mobility on J2ME

This paper makes the case why mobile code is an appropriate solution for platforms running on mobile devices aggregated in mobile ad hoc networks. It also presents a solution that considers the introduction of mobile code using remote class loading in the J2ME/CLDC profile. The principal problem of remote class loading revolves around trusting the remote code in accessing system resources. After a review of the algorithms which are used to accomplish access control, a mechanism for the CLDC is proposed that is based on the history of the access control
