Newton : Mobile Computing for the Internet
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we motivate the importance of mobile access to global information systems and present WWW/Newton, a WWW frontend for Apple’s Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), the Newton. An emphasis is put on impacts of the PDA technology and limited network bandwidth on the software architecture of WWW/Newton. On the other hand, we will discuss resulting requirements for next-generation WWW protocols and servers which can be easily generalized to other global information systems. The work presented was carried out in the context of a larger project which investigates the mutual impacts of mobile computing technology and distributed applications. WWW/Newton software has been successfully presented on several international exhibitions and has received vital interest from the network community.

A Mobile and Fog-based Computing Method to Execute Smart Device Applications in a Secure Environment
With the rapid growth of smart device and Internet of things applications, the volume of communication and data in networks have increased. Due to the network lag and massive demands, centralized and traditional cloud computing architecture are not accountable to the high users' demands and not proper for execution of delay-sensitive and real time applications. To resolve these challenges, we p...
متن کاملAn Enhanced MSS-based checkpointing Scheme for Mobile Computing Environment
Mobile computing systems are made up of different components among which Mobile Support Stations (MSSs) play a key role. This paper proposes an efficient MSS-based non-blocking coordinated checkpointing scheme for mobile computing environment. In the scheme suggested nearly all aspects of checkpointing and their related overheads are forwarded to the MSSs and as a result the workload of Mobile ...
