Recent emerging technologies such as the WWW have significantly expanded the number of the services available to end users. Most of these services are provided through Web pages that include applications that act as clients of the information sources. We call them Web-embedded client applications. We propose a new information integration architecture and a set of tools that allow mobile users to integrate information provided through the Web-embedded client applications in the remote programming style. In our approach, Web-embedded client applications are wrapped to describe their services into abstract forms called interface definitions. The interface definitions can be seen as software components and loaded into a mobile unit. We provide an integrated building tool called mediator on mobile unit to explore information in the interface definitions, solve the schematic conflict problem and create customized applications in the disconnected state. We also present a preliminary experiment that indicates that our approach can be realized.
