=====================================================================
In today's mobile society, access to relevant information and to context-
specific services "anytime, anywhere" is becoming increasingly important.
Mobile users are often particularly interested in information about and
services in their immediate vicinity, thus Mobile Distributed Information
Systems must address location-dependent distribution of and access to
services and information from mobile devices. In addition to location,
other environmental aspects, such as the user's current situation, topology
and available bandwidth of wireless networks, battery power and
characteristics of mobile devices, are also relevant for determining
information and service requirements. For mobile applications, a dynamic
re-configurable architecture is thus required to support flexible reaction
to changing contexts and seamless operation in foreign environments, with
little or no need for manual reconfiguration. With mobile devices becoming
more and more popular and powerful, communication and cooperation between
mobile users in an ad-hoc manner are strongly desired. Consequently,
the long-established distinction between clients and servers is blurred,
which calls for an extension of the architectural paradigm towards peers
or alternating roles.
This Minitrack will address current topics in the field of
Mobile Distributed Information Systems, such as:
- Location and Situation Aware Information Services: Modeling,
Architectures and Applications
- Network Support for Mobile Access to Services and Information
- Mobile Ad-hoc Networking and Computing
- Provision, Distribution and Management of Services for Mobile
Environments
- Directory Services, Service Discovery and Service Brokers
- Middleware for Mobile Distributed Information Systems
- Distributed Databases and Data Management for Mobile Applications
- Peer-to-Peer Computing and Cooperation: Scenarios, Platforms and
Applications
- Self-/Zero-/Auto-Configuration, Dynamic Configuration for Mobile
Users
- Mobile Multimedia Systems, QoS for Mobile Information Access
- Management of Groups of Mobile Users
- Mobile Devices: GUIs, Usability and Adaptability
- Location Tracking Technologies
- Security, Privacy and Billing Issues for Mobile Information and
Service Access
- Applications and Case Studies of Mobile Distributed Information
Systems
