چکیده

This paper presents a measurement study of file system usage for a group of mobile devices users in different locations. The goal of this study is to dispel the idea that the behaviour of mobile systems can be modelled as being homogenous across various locations. The study shows that all volunteers access statistically significantly different sets of data as they move across locations. These results question the traditional way of evaluating mobile computing systems, which typically model the behavior of a user in different locations as being similar to her behavior in a single location for a longer period.

Location Aware Opportunistic Bandwidth Sharing between Static and Mobile Users with Stochastic Learning in Cellular Networks

In this paper, we consider the problem of location-dependent opportunistic bandwidth sharing between static and mobile (i.e., moving) downlink users in a cellular network. Each cell of the network has some fixed number of static users. Mobile users enter the cell, move inside the cell for some time and then leave the cell. In order to provide higher data rate to the mobile users, we propose loc...
