Active control by a mobile client of subscription notifications in smart space

Abstract

Smart space supports interaction of multiple participants though information sharing. This kind of interaction is indirect and networked. For detection of changes, which come in parallel from other participants, a participant applies the subscription operation. It allows receiving notifications passively on a regular basis. Absolutely dependable delivery of notifications cannot be guaranteed in modern computing environments. In particular, wireless networks are subject of frequent faults, making the subscription operation less reliable for mobile clients in smart spaces. In this paper, we study the problem of active control by a client in receiving subscription notifications. We introduce a simple mathematical model for control the check interval for subscription notifications, which ensures client adaptation to the notification loss rate
