Related Work
n Typically, related work focuses on bandwidth variation
n Other resources are also constrained (memory, power,
CPU capabilities) and may vary over time
n Majority of solutions: introduce proxy between client
(application executing on mobile device) and server, proxy
compresses and filters data stream
§ sometimes, degree of compression depends on available bandwidth
§ user mobility often not addressed/supported
n Other solutions:
§ view mobile purely as User Interface (WWW browsers,
Teleporting, ....)
§ partition client application between mobile and proxy
Ø partition directed by application (Rover, MaROS, ....)
Ø partition transparent to application (our own focus)
