We propose a system that makes opportunistic use of mobile computing devices and ad hoc networking to provide a transient storage service to clients in a localized geographical region. The main challenge is to offset the potential data loss caused by node mobility with internode communication. We first argue on the basis of simulation and theory that such a service is feasible, given a sufficiently...
For the purpose of cooperation between a user's mobile device and a public device, we propose ad-hoc pairing, which dynamically generates a pair of a mobile device and a public device. The proposed method has the feature to generate the pair required by a user steadily with few errors and few retries. We measure the period required for pairing procedure via the implemented system to evaluate the efficiency...
In today's Digital Libraries, mobile devices belong to readers often move from one network to the other frequently. Communications with a fixed support infrastructure may not be suitable for original library applications. Ubiquitous computing environments need to be deployed for new library era. This paper discusses the role of Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) in the Library. A case study is discussed...
The mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) is autonomous, infrastructureless network. Unlike the common Web service used in wired applications, the web service applications based on MANET have so many differences in data transmission, service registration and service discovery. All components of web service of MANET need to consider the features of mobile devices and mobile environment. Considering the characters...
This paper describes middleware that establishes a MANET environment with mobile devices and exchanges contents in the devices. The middleware also provides a sharing function as a common service among mobile devices.
