Applications for mobile devices have some restrictions because of the limited capabilities and heterogeneity of these devices. However, their communication capabilities allow the d...
In this paper we investigate the benefits of a heterogeneous architecture for wireless sensor networks composed of a few resource rich mobile nodes and a large number of simple s...
The pervasive and mobile computing scenario is characterized by the high heterogeneity of devices used to access services, and by frequent changes in the user's context. In t...
In this paper, we propose a new mobility model as an extension of the random walk model. Our proposal gathers mobility patterns with several degrees of randomness, so that both ran...
Many mobile applications can be greatly enhanced when provided with the locations of people and devices. Ultrasonic location systems have been shown to supply location information...
