Abstract

Handheld computing devices such as Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and the latest mobile phones are becoming widespread, so migrating desktop applications to these platforms is of great interest to developers. However, little information is available to guide the novice especially for the Palm OS, the most popular platform in the PDA and smartphone arena. This paper highlights the migration challenges involved and potential directions in easing this reengineering process. To explore the practical understanding and reengineering issues, a large legacy application was partially migrated to Palm OS.
