Abstract

The widespread use of smart mobile devices and the digital transformation foster context-aware applications (short: apps) that bridge the gap between the socio-technical and business worlds in our everyday lives. While the number of proprietary, mobile app solutions is increasing, a mobile integration system architecture, e. g., connecting mobile and cloud apps, and studies of the trade-off between resource-limits and resilient service qualities on mobile computing platforms are missing.

In this work we define the core components of a resilient, resource-aware, mobile enterprise application integration (EAI) system, which requires extensions beyond the current non-mobile architectures. We evaluate the proposed architecture and especially its runtime resource and monitoring characteristics in form of a prototypical mobile realization.
