TL;DR: In this article, a system and methodology for deferring service invocation for occasionally connected computing devices is described, where a server-side object intercepts any requests from the application for invocation of a particular service, thereby deferring actual invocation of the particular service at that time.
Abstract: A system and methodology providing service invocation for occasionally connected computing devices is described. In one embodiment, for example, in an occasionally connected computing environment, a system of the present invention for providing deferred invocation of services for a mobile device is described that comprises: an application running on a mobile device; a device-side object providing mobile support for a particular service from a server, the device-side object intercepting any requests from the application for invocation of the particular service, thereby deferring actual invocation of the particular service at that time; and a server-side object residing on the server that passes the requests on to a service provider for actual invocation while the mobile device is connected, and returns any result from the actual invocation back to the mobile device for use by the application.

TL;DR: A novel architecture for supporting mobile information access in the occasionally connected computing environment is described by utilizing user workflow, profiles, and environmental information, which can help in predicting near future data needs and therefore can enable intelligent data charging.
Abstract: We describe a novel architecture for supporting mobile information access in the occasionally connected computing environment. By utilizing user workflow, profiles, and environmental information, information from various sources published to the system will be prioritized, cached and synchronized in the staging server, and eventually disseminated to mobile devices. Furthermore, workflow and user profile can help in predicting near future data needs and therefore can enable intelligent data charging.

16 Apr 2007TL;DR: RelReliable messaging can be incorporated into a framework for occasionally connected computing (OCC), for example, various delivery assurance profiles can be supported for an application accessing Web Services to accomplish online business processing.
Abstract: Reliable messaging can be incorporated into a framework for occasionally connected computing (OCC). For example, various delivery assurance profiles can be supported for an application accessing Web Services to accomplish online business processing. Processing can be accomplished transparently with respect to whether the Web Services are available to a mobile computing device.
