    Hi Ahmed,

    No OSGi is about dynamically assembling applications from a group of
    plugins.

    http://www.osgi.org/

    talks a lot about mobile applications because the consortium is
    focused on the mobile market but the framework has had wide
    acceptance outside the mobile market. There are even some talking
    about adopting OSGi as a backend assembly mechanism for servers.

    OSGi is the backend of eclipse, it is how all the plugins that are
    loaded find each other and work together.

    HTH,
