This work presents a new approach to solve the location management problem by using the location areas approach. A combination of a genetic algorithm and the Hopfield neural netwo...
The execution of distributed applications involving mobile terminals and fixed servers connected by wireless links raises the need for handling network disconnections, both invol...
Some popular computing technologies, such as ubiquitous computing, grid computing and thin-client computing, bring people to a much more distributed and pervasive computing enviro...
One of the attractive features of Grid computing is that resources in geographically distant places can be mobilized to meet computational needs as they arise. A particularly chal...
We describe Spectra, a remote execution system for batterypowered clients used in pervasive computing. Spectra enables applications to combine the mobility of small devices with t...
