Abstract

Advances in telecommunications and the arrival of mobile phones in the hands of population allowed expensive sensors to become much more accessible to the masses. As a result, research focused on the use of such sensors has also grown. This increase has shown the ability of such devices to collect their users' day-to-day data, enhancing daily activities. However, a bad practice was developed in the midst of these findings. The vast majority of the work involving mobile technology and the use of its sensors recreates the algorithms used for data collection, cleaning, normalization and/or presentation. These works generate a loss of reuse of technologies already created and already executed, just for the sake of customization of the application. This work offers a platform in which the objective is to modularize the steps that are repeatedly recreated in these projects providing a certain degree of customization.
