A LIGHT-WEIGHT MVC (MODEL-VIEW-CONTROLLER) FRAMEWORK FOR SMART DEVICE APPLICATION
ABSTRACT: In this paper, a
light-weight MVC framework for smart device application is designed and implemented.
The primary goal of the work is to provide a MVC framework for a commercial
smart device product development. To this end, the developed framework presents
integration between the classic design patterns, MVC and state-of-the-art
technology XAML by adapting a MVC framework of an open source XAML efforts,
MyXaml into .NET Compact Framework. As the compact framework only comprises 12%
of .NET Framework library, some design and architectural changes of the
existing framework need to be done to achieve the same abstraction level. The
adapted framework enables to reduce the complexity of the smart device
application development, reuse each component of the MVC separately in
different project and provide a more manageable source code as the system
architecture is more apparent from the source code itself as well as provide a
commonality of the development pattern. A prototype of simple database interface
application was built to show these benefits.
