چکیده

Mobile information access involves retrieving information from wired service providers. Often there are situations where the information is not available from a single service provider but can be obtained by combining information from multiple service providers. It is inefficient and some times impossible for a resource poor mobile device connected over a low bandwidth wireless link to coordinate such activity. In this paper, we describe a middleware to support this mode of access from resource poor mobile devices that take into consideration mobility, resource constraints and service heterogeneity.

Access control in ultra-large-scale systems using a data-centric middleware

  The primary characteristic of an Ultra-Large-Scale (ULS) system is ultra-large size on any related dimension. A ULS system is generally considered as a system-of-systems with heterogeneous nodes and autonomous domains. As the size of a system-of-systems grows, and interoperability demand between sub-systems is increased, achieving more scalable and dynamic access control system becomes an im...

Location-Based and Content-Based Information Access in Mobile Peer-to-Peer Computing: The TOTA Approach

Mobile peer-to-peer computing calls for suitable middleware and programming models to provide dynamic access to information and resources in dynamic network environments. In particular, location-based access and contentbased access to information appear two very useful mechanisms. Here we present how both these two kinds of information access can be realized via TOTA (“Tuples On The Air”), a no...
