There exist distributed scenarios in which the need for dynamism, mobility, and adaptivity, has to be addressed with highly dynamical approaches. These scenarios present different ...
Pervasive and ad hoc computing applications are frequently deployed in dynamic networks. Due to mobility of the computing nodes, their unreliability, or a limited communication ra...
In this paper, we present techniques for exploiting intermittently available resources in grid infrastructures to support QoS-based multimedia applications on mobile devices. Spec...
Recent mobile devices are capable of creating and storing a large amount of multimedia data, but sharing those data with others is still challenging. This paper presents Cocktail,...
The paper addresses the challenges and opportunities of instrumenting pervasive computing systems with a logical clock, aware of the quality of synchronization with respect to a t...
