Data Allocation in a Mobile Computing Network with Minimized Response Time and Communication Cost

In this paper, we devise data allocation algorithms that can utilize the knowledge of user moving patterns for proper global data allocation in a mobile computing system. By employing the data allocation algorithms devised, the occurrences of costly remote accesses can be minimized and the performance of a mobile computing system is thus improved. The issue we addressed here is to allocate right data at right location while minimizing communication cost and response time of the network.
