Large-scale Monitoring and Provisioning Systems
Abstract:
The event paradigm and publish/subscribe systems allow clients to asynchronously receive information that matches their interests. The requirements of mobile computing present new challenges pertaining to event delivery that need to be solved. In this paper, we formally examine several state transfer protocols for different pub/sub topologies. The new results of this paper are the cost functions for both subscriber and publisher mobility, and investigation and formulation of completeness of subscriptions and advertisements. The results show that rendezvous points are good for pub/sub mobility, handovers in incomplete topologies are more costly than in complete, and the brokers involved with mobility have no way of detecting completeness based on local information alone.
