The recent growth in the mobile device market has proven the feasibility of mobile storage
based consumer electronics products. One of the key features of personal mobile storage …

We study the problem of maintaining large replicated collections of files or documents in a
distributed environment with limited bandwidth. This problem arises in a number of important …

As the number of user-managed devices continues to increase, the need for synchronizing
multiple file hierarchies distributed over devices with ad hoc connectivity, is becoming a …

We present a three-tier architecture of middleware that addresses challenges facing
accessibility, availability, and consistency of data in mobile environments. The architecture …

In an age where wirelessly networked appliances and devices are becoming commonplace,
there is a necessity for connecting them to work together for a mobile user. The design …

This paper describes a novel communication scheme, which is guaranteed to be free of
synchronization failures, amongst multiple synchronous modules operating independently …

This paper makes a survey of algorithms proposed for continuous media synchronization in
network environments. We classify media synchronization control techniques used in the …

In a distributed groupware system, objects shared by users are subject to concurrency and
real time constraints. In order to satisfy these, various concurrency control algorithms have …

Proposes an extension to an earlier proposed temporal synchronization model, called
OCPN. The new model allows one to specify spatial operations at the time of authoring the …

Users are increasingly inundated with small devices with communication and storage
capabilities. Unfortunately, the user is still responsible for reconciling all of the devices …
