In this paper, we present techniques for exploiting intermittently available resources in grid infrastructures to support QoS-based multimedia applications on mobile devices. Spec...
The Mobile Internet scenario encourages the design and development of context-aware applications that provide results depending on context information, such as the relative positi...
