Unanticipated Dynamic Adaptation of Mobile Applications

The Handbook of Mobile Middleware

Device miniaturization, wireless computing, and mobile communication are driving ubiquitous, pervasive, and transparent computing. Supporting these rapidly evolving technologies requires middleware solutions that address connectivity-level, location-dependent, and context-dependent issues. The Handbook of Mobile Middleware is an exhaustive o
