User interface distribution in multi-device and multi-user environments with dynamically migrating engines

Published:17 June 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper we present a framework and associated run-time support for flexible user interface distribution in multi-device and multi-user environments. It supports distribution across dynamic sets of devices, and does not require the use of a fixed server. The distribution updates are processed taking in account device types and user roles. We also report on three example applications and a validation of the presented framework.
