Adaptation Mechanisms For Transactions In Mobile Computing Environments [mecanismos De Adaptação Para Transações Em Ambientes De Computação Móvel]

Advances in wireless communication technologies and portable computers have turned mobile computing into a reality. These environments are characterized by a high dynamism that can hamper the execution of applications. This paper presents a set of adaptation mechanisms that can be used within a transaction context to overcome the high dynamism and resource restrictions of the mobile environment. Three adaptation mechanisms were proposed: isolation level, operation mode and transaction mobility. © Copyright 2010 IEEE - All rights reserved.58631637Forman, G.H., Zahorjan, J., The Challenges of Mobile Computing (1994) IEEE Computer, 27. , AprilImielinski, T., Badrinath, B.R., Mobile Wireless Computing: Challenges in Data Management (1994) Communications of ACM, 37 (10). , OctoberVenkatraman, S., Mobile Computing Models - Are they Meeting the Mobile Computing Challenges?
