Abstract

When migration occurs, some aspects of the context of use changes: the most relevant one is the device, but further modifications in the context (e.g. the position of the user and or the device) might occur as well. In order to enable the application to cope with such context changes, an adaptation step is carried out within the migration process. This adaptation might affect different aspects of the application , not only the user interface but also the application logic. In this chapter we examine a migration example in which both such adaptations occur, by describing a case study on a web-based game application .
