As humans are getting more and more equipped with increasingly powerful mobile computing devices giving them access to online services, the need for personalized and adaptive information services is rapidly growing. Thus, the field of context-aware services has been, during recent years, a field of intense research and has given rise to several approaches. However, in most of the approaches there is a lack of generic methodology for formalizing the development activity for this type of services and, consequently, this activity is very cumbersome and time consuming. Recently, some research works have advocated Model-Driven Development (MDD) as an approach for context-aware services development. In this paper we aim to review these works and their main features.}, }
