A Programming Interface for Application-Aware Adaptation in Mobile Computing

Authors: 

Brian D. Noble, Morgan Price, and M. Satyanarayanan Carnegie Mellon University

Abstract: 

UNIX hosts configured for network operation typically hang, or freeze, when temporarily disconnected from the network. This failure is unacceptable to the user of a mobile host who purposely disconnects the host from the network in order to move it to another location not serviced by a network connection. This paper describes an approach that automatically enables a system to continue to function, in a diminished capacity, when disconnected from the network.
