Intelligent fluid infrastructure for embedded networks [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2nd international conference on Mobile systems, applications, and services, 2004
Computer networks have historically considered support for mobile devices as an extra overhead to be borne by the system. Recently however, researchers have proposed methods by which the network can take advantage of mobile components. We exploit mobility to develop a fluid infrastructure: mobile components are deliberately built into the system ...
