Example apparatus and methods concern fingerprint-based, intelligent, content pre-fetching. An example apparatus may have a memory that is configured to store content items or fingerprints derived from content items. The apparatus may include a set of logics that are configured to selectively asynchronously provide a content item or a fingerprint d...
A system that facilitates different levels of operating system (OS) boot so as to provide users with rapid access to certain mobile device functionalities, security, applications, etc. is provided. An OS can be loaded in phases or stages commensurate with policies, preferences, actions, context, etc. Similarly, a particular OS or group of OSs can b...
Mobile objects have gained a lot of attention in research and industry in the recent past, but they also have a long history. Security is one of the key requirements of mobile objects, and one of the most researched characteristics related to mobility. Resource management has been somewhat neglected in the past, but it is being increasingly address...

Security is one of the key requirements of mobile objects, and one of the most researched characteristics related to mobility.

In a distributed system, objects may migrate from one node to another for a variety of reasons. The new location may provide a more suitable computational environment, it may offer cheaper resources, or it may have data needed by the agent to satisfy its goals. The ability of an object to exist in a resource space that is not entirely dedicated to...
We describe how our experience with classic operating system level process migration mechanisms influenced the design of MOA, a mobile agents project. A case is presented for implementing mobile agents using language environments and overcoming the limitations of those environments by employing mechanisms adapted from classic process migration impl...
This paper presents a toolkit for supporting the execution of coarse-grain, parallel (distributed) applications under the MOSIX multicomputer operating system. These tools use standard UNIX System V process control and message-passing facilities, as well as the dynamic process migration mechanisms of MOSIX. The MPE tools can be used to modify seque...
