Abstract
Users of mobile computers will soon have access to shared online databases via wireless networks. The authors are developing a system that dynamically allocates and deallocates copies of the data-items in these databases to mobile computers, for optimizing cost and performance. This dynamic allocation of data-items to mobile computers is guided by input from the users concerning the type of wireless network, overall system reliability and availability requirements, and the objective function to be optimized
