Abstract
In this paper, a framework for mobile context-based messaging
applications is presented. The framework provides a way to create messaging
applications easily and efficiently by allowing applications to be defined via
XML documents. The application framework was implemented using Java
programming language. It supports applications that have different categories
from which users can search messages based on different context and content
criteria and to which users can send messages containing any multimedia
elements. Currently supported context criteria are location and time, and the
only currently supported content criterion is the words contained in the
messages. Possible applications include reporting and discussing problems of
public spaces, rating public services, and selling second-hand products. The
main benefit for the users is that it is easy to switch between applications
that use the same framework since the applications share a similar look and
feel.
