Abstract

Due to the rapid development of the hardware divisions, varied and low-price mobile devices were provided to not only end-users but also widespread industry. However, in the software divisions, the characteristics of the software such as closed and differentiation causing restrictions of development. Therefore, it requires high costs and long times in the development process. In this paper, we introduce the Mobile Platform Middleware based on L4 Microkernel which provides linux-like environment and services for other mobile application platforms such as BREW and WIPI to facilitate easily development and migration of applications for mobile devices.
