Excerpt: MUSIC, acronym of Self-Adapting Applications for Mobile USers In Ubiquitous Computing Environments, is a project which implements an open-source software development framework for self-adapting, reconfigurable applications that adapt to the dynamic user and to the execution context. This execution context, as explained below, refers to the information which can be obtained from the environment, like the location or the device resources. These context-aware applications are capable to exploit the knowledge of the external operating conditions (the context). They are self-adaptive if they adapt at runtime to a change in the context, like changing user needs and operating environments. The MUSIC project belongs to the EU's ...
