            Abstract : 
This paper describes an intelligent distributed framework that enables the dynamic composition of mobile services and applications based on existing services and technologies, while enriching them with high-level and up-to-date contextual information. The framework makes the service implementation totally platform-unaware, thus increasing the number of potentially available services and shortening application time-to-market
