MobiMan: uma arquitetura orientada a serviços web para o gerenciamento de ambientes de computação móvel

Abstract

Mobile computing services and applications pose special requirements to run properly, whose satisfaction is hampered due to the highly dynamic environment where they are executed. In this environment, management becomes an important element to enable harmonious functioning of both the mobile physical infrastructure and the applications. Current solutions are restricted to resource monitoring,

and do not provide mechanisms to manage the applications running on top of the mobile devices. This work proposes an architecture to manage mobile computing environments, which allows one to obtain and disseminate, in a flexible manner, information about the devices and the applications. The architecture is based on the Web Services Distributed Management standard. This work also presents results

obtained with the instantiation of the architecture in a real setup
