ABSTRACT
Applications are often designed to take advantage of the
potential for integration with each other via shared
information. Current approaches for integration are limited,
effecting both the programmer and end-user. In this paper,
we present CyberDesk, a framework for self-integrating
software in which integration is driven by user context. It
relieves the burden on programmers by removing the
necessity to predict how software should be integrated. It
also relieves the burden from users by removing the need to
understand how different software components work
together.
