Transaction Service Discovery in Mobile Environments

Transaction execution in mobile environments needs to be flexible, not only to support typical mobile computing characteristics, like movement, disconnections and limited resources, but also to support the variety of transactional properties that might be required by different applications.

We suggest a solution with transaction service discovery and control using UPnP
