Performance Modelling of Content Adaptation for a Personal Distributed Environment

摘要

In the new era of wireless, mobile connectivity the possibilities of anything, anytime, anywhere access are becoming a reality. In order to deliver services and content to users in a variety of contexts, content adaptation strategies need to be developed and assessed. In this paper we present an approach to performance evaluation and capacity planning, based on a high-level system description formalism, which can be readily extracted from a system design. We demonstrate its usefulness in assessing the design of a content adaptation framework being developed under the auspices of the virtual centre in mobile communications.
