Abstract :
This paper presents an agent-based content adaptation middleware for use in a mobile eHealth (mHealth) system. The middleware was developed by utilizing an object-oriented database version of the Wireless Universal Resource FiLe (WURFL) Application Programming Interface (API) and integrated into a cloud system as means for facilitating an Always Best Connected and best Served (ABC&S) communication mode. A pure Java Wireless Abstraction Library (Java-WALL) tag and a lightweight Multi-Agent System (MAS) are presented. A number of design aspects associated with the middleware implementation are also highlighted.
