Abstract(s)
Mobile applications are becoming increasingly more
complex and making heavier demands on local system
resources. Moreover, mobile systems are nowadays more open,
allowing users to add more and more applications, including
third-party developed ones. In this perspective, it is
increasingly expected that users will want to execute in their
devices applications which supersede currently available
resources. It is therefore important to provide frameworks
which allow applications to benefit from resources available on
other nodes, capable of migrating some or all of its services to
other nodes, depending on the user needs. These requirements
are even more stringent when users want to execute Quality of
Service (QoS) aware applications, such as voice or video. The
required resources to guarantee the QoS levels demanded by
an application can vary with time, and consequently,
applications should be able to reconfigure themselves. This
paper proposes a QoS-aware service-based framework able to
support distributed, migration-capable, QoS-enabled
applications on top of the Android Operating system.
