摘要:
The functionality of smartphone applications may be extended to a basic phone, i.e., a phone lacking a particular smartphone capability, by providing a data synthesizer in the basic phone that synthesizers required data points. The data synthesizer may communicate with nearby smartphones to collect relevant data points such as location or motion data. Data points for the basic phone may be calculated from the collected data points. When an application on the basic phone requests data, a data provider proxy may retrieve a synthesized data point from the data synthesizer. In one example, a basic phone without a GPS or similar location module may execute a mapping application by averaging location data from nearby smartphones.

In a heterogeneous environment of virtual machines, an agent can migrate between virtual machines of different types. During migration, classes of the mobile agent may need to be instantiated on the new virtual machine. To support classes across all virtual machine types, a resource server is provided that can provide virtual machine type specific instances of the classfile. The resource server receives a resource request from a resource loader of a virtual machine. The resource request specifies the resource and the virtual machine type, thereby enabling the resource server to retrieve the correct instance of the classfile to return to the resource loader.

In developing applications for a plurality of node types, a meta-data definition of the application can be captured into an application definition module. The meta-data definition can describe the application for the plurality of node types. A code generation module can then automatically generate the application code for the plurality of node types. The code can be compiled per node type and the packaging necessary to deploy the application to the plurality of node types can also be automatically generated.

In a mobile device, one of a plurality of network transports may be used for a connection request. The ideal network transport may be selected by executing a connection selection policy that is stored within the device. The connection selection policy may include one or more network transport evaluators that are each configured to weight the available network transports according to various criteria. Examples of network transport evaluators include evaluators that are dependent on geolocation, security levels, or battery status.

In distributed object computing, messages from a source node to a destination node are often required to be routed via one or more intermediate nodes. In order to enhance efficiency of the relay process, a message envelope of a message may include a node list field that specifies the routing path of the message. The communication protocol for communicating the message may specify that when a message is received into a particular node, the node analyzes the node list field. If the identity of the node is last in the node list field, then the node is the destination node and thus the node unmarshals the message. Otherwise, the node forwards the message to the next node in the field list without unmarshalling the message.

To provide proxy address neutrality, in particular for mobile server devices, a server application can register its network address with a discovery application. Whenever the server application acquires a new network address, the server application updates the discovery application. A client application providing proxy services for the server application can invoke calls to the server client using the network address for the server application that is currently stored in the client device. If the current network address is invalid, the client application obtains an updated network address from the discovery application.
摘要:
In a network of sensor nodes, operational efficiency may be increased by configuring the sensor nodes so that sensor agents may be transferred to alternative sensor nodes to process sensor node data, such as when the host sensor node is in a low-power mode. A processing node of the network may be configured to retrieve real-time data from a sensor node, but if real-time data is not available, the processing node may perform calculations on cached data retrieved from a processor node cache or data of a nearby sensor node.
