Paperback. This world! This small world the great! Odysseus Elytis 1. 1 Wireless data communications In the 19th century, the advent of the telegraph and telephone forever changed how messages were transmitted around the world. Radio, television, c- puters, and the Internet further revolutionized communication in the 20th 1 century. Equally important, the e?ect of Moores law is transforming a niche technology into a ubiquitous one, expanding the innovations in an increasingly networked world. Wireless devices are becoming smaller, easier to use and p- vasive. In e?ect, people are depending more and more on wireless information wherever they are. At the dawn of the 21st century, pervasive computing weaves itself into our lives [352, 6, 4, 29, 42, 48, 23, 50, 47, 38, 19, 22, 18]. Today people access local and international news, tra?c or weather - ports, sports, maps, guide books, music, video ?les and games via the Int- net [27, 52].

Similarly, the importance of meta-data, i. e. , semantic annotations of what this data means, is also rapidly growing. Analysts expect the growth in mobile location-based services in the European market to reach 622 million euros in 2010, estimating that 18 million users in Europe will subscribe to location-based billing plans by then. 1 Wireless data communications In the 19th century, the advent of the telegraph and telephone forever changed how messages were transmitted around the world.

Synopsis :

Wireless devices are becoming smaller, more user-friendly and more pervasive. This book presents and discusses research results on data dissemination in mobile networks and peer-to-peer systems for mobile devices. The main focus is a novel resource-sharing mechanism for mobile devices that introduces a new paradigm of information-sharing cooperation among mobile devices not necessarily connected to the internet. The authors discuss ho to accelerate the data availability and enhance the dissemination and discovery of information when mobile hosts face changes in the availability of bandwidth and loss of connectivity to the Internet. The book is designed for researchers and practitioners in industry, and is also suitable for advanced-level students in computer science and electrical engineering.
