Through the wireless networks, portableequipments will become an integrated part of existing distributedcomputing environments, and mobile users can have access to datastored at information servers located at the static portion of thenetwork even while they are on the move..Traditionally, information is retrieved following a request-responsemodel. However, this model is no longer adequate in a wirelesscomputing environment. First, the wireless channel is unreliable andthe bandwidth is low compared to the wired counterpart. Second, theenvironment is essentially asymmetric with a large number of mobileusers accessing a small number of servers. Third, battery-operatedportable devices can typically operate only for a short time becauseof the short battery lifespan.
