Components of mobile integration in social business and E-commerce application

Abstract

E-commerce and Social Business solutions are developed through the integration of different components. Distributed software agents are very promising in developing an increasingly penetrating component and middleware technology. Agents are specialized types of components that offer greater flexibility than traditional components. This study focuses on the development of a software agent that could be used to assemble different types of frameworks written and constructed by different developers from different platforms. This paper proposed an application of mobile integration components in social enterprise and e-commerce as a software development methodology to simply integrate different basic components of the technology into a single web-based solution. We propose a systematic development process for the software agent using components and UML. We first developed the agent component specification and modeled it. Based on this, we developed a mobile application for social business applications. We integrate the module-based software framework into Drupal’s content management system.
