Abstract

Purpose

In ubiquitous computing environments, not only programmers but also general users come to develop/customize applications. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to propose a new application development environment for ubiquitous computing environments.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper clarifies the requirements for application development environments of ubiquitous computing environments. It then designs and implements a prototype of a development environment that fulfills these requirements.

Findings

It is found that the requirements for application development in ubiquitous computing environments are: easy programming, detection of current status, programming awareness of network connections between multiple ubiquitous devices, and debugging with cooperation among real/virtual environments.

Research limitations/implications

This prototype of application development environment is designed for event‐driven ubiquitous devices.

Practical implications

A prototype development environment has been implemented to show the effectiveness of this approach, and is presented an example of an application development to show the effectiveness of the approach.

Originality/value

This paper proposes a new style of application development for ubiquitous computing environments
