The MobiSnap Project
Document Actions
The main goal of this project is to provide methodologies and tools to deploy relational database applications on mobile computers. Our research focus two main areas: the mobile transaction model and the divergence control. Until now, we have developed a model of mobile transactions that allows the definition of precise conflict detection and conflict resolution rules using semantic information associated with the operations. We have also defined a conflict avoidance model based on reservations upon the database state - this model allows to independently guarantee the results of transaction in mobile devices. Currently, we are integrating an automatic semantics-based reconciliation engine to maximize the value of un-guaranteed transactions that can be committed.
