FROM DESKTOPS TO MOBILE DEVICES: HOW COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE IMPACTS DAILY TECHNOLOGY USE
Keywords:
High instruction reference locality, Coarse-grained parallelism , Programmability, adaptability, terminal, radio modemAbstract
Distributed multimedia applications running in a mobile environment have a number of special characteristics. Many future wireless mobile systems will operate in various, relatively unregulated environments such as home and workplace LANs with time varying interference levels.
