Description

Adaptive Mobile Computing: Advances in Processing Mobile Data Sets explores the latest advancements in producing, processing and securing mobile data sets. The book provides the elements needed to deepen understanding of this trend which, over the last decade, has seen exponential growth in the number and capabilities of mobile devices. The pervasiveness, sensing capabilities and computational power of mobile devices have turned them into a fundamental instrument in everyday life for a large part of the human population. This fact makes mobile devices an incredibly rich source of data about the dynamics of human behavior, a pervasive wireless sensors network with substantial computational power and an extremely appealing target for a new generation of threats.  

Key Features

  • Offers a coherent and realistic image of today’s architectures, techniques, protocols, components, orchestration, choreography and development related to mobile computing
  • Explains state-of-the-art technological solutions for the main issues hindering the development of next-generation pervasive systems including: supporting components for collecting data intelligently, handling resource and data management, accounting for fault tolerance, security, monitoring and control, addressing the relation with the Internet of Things and Big Data and depicting applications for pervasive context-aware processing
  • Presents the benefits of mobile computing and the development process of scientific and commercial applications and platforms to support them
  • Familiarizes readers with the concepts and technologies that are successfully used in the implementation of pervasive/ubiquitous systems
