This paper describes an approach for enabling remote database access from heterogeneous thin clients. DataX is a proxy-based architecture that supports disconnected operation by r...
In this paper, we study the inconsistency problem in data broadcast. While data items in a mobile computing system are being broadcast, update transactions may install new values ...
This paper addresses the problem of geocasting in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) environments. Geocasting is a variant of the conventional multicasting problem. For multicasting, c...
In this paper we propose a new protocol for reliable multicast in a multi-hop mobile radio network. The protocol is reliable, i.e., it guarantees message delivery to all multicast...
In this study we investigate the interaction between TCP and MAC layer in a wireless multi-hop network. Using simulation, we provide new insight into two critical problems of TCP ...

Current groupware systems do not work well over wireless networks, as a wireless connection is of variable and often poor quality. Our research suggests a number of changes that a...
An ad-hoc network is the cooperative engagement of a collection of mobile nodes without the required intervention of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure. In th...
