ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET) Special Issue on 'Collaborative Computing: Networking, Applications and Worksharing'

摘要

Recent advances in computing have contributed to the growing interconnection of our world, including 3 G/4 G wireless networks, web 2.0 technologies, computing clouds, just to mention a few. The potential for collaboration among various components has exceeded the current capabilities of traditional approaches to system integration and interoperability. As the world heads towards unlimited connectivity and global mobile computing, collaboration becomes one of the fundamental challenges. We view collaborative computing as the glue that brings the components together and also the lubricant that make them work together.
