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
Ø sometimes, degree of compression depends on available bandwidth
Ø user mobility often not addressed/supported
n Other solutions:
Ø view mobile purely as User Interface (WWW browsers,
Teleporting, ....)
Ø partition client application between mobile and proxy
§ partition directed by application (Rover, MaROS, ....)
§ partition transparent to application (our own focus)
