Abstract :
We present a software framework that facilitates the development of adaptive applications. This framework allows the installation of application-dependent policies which govern the adaptive behaviour of the application. These policies take into account user preferences and resource availability. The framework provides a generic interface to a variety of re-usable resource classes. We describe an application built using this framework
