  Mobile is taking center stage and becoming the device of preference for all
aspects of communication because of our increasingly on the go lifestyles. With
this the demands on mobile capability to execute increasingly complex
operations are also on the rise. However, despite improvements in device
computing power in the last couple of years a mobile device continues to have
limitations. Mobile driven everyday use cases are increasingly raising
expectations that rest on mobile technologies that are still evolving. A number
of fragmented approaches and solutions have been created that address various
requirements unique to mobility, however there is a lack of a single framework
that serves as a unifying reference for industry and solution architectures.
The paper addresses this concern through the specification of a comprehensive
reference framework for mobility that is generic and vendor neutral.
