The motivation for the model is the growth of mobile devices with varying degrees of sensor capability and varying levels of processing power. ...
Contactile computing is a proposed new paradigm in which sensors and communications are integrated into a system model that integrates real-time support with conventional application support. ...
For example, telephony is a real-time application, but the most time-critical elements arise from delays on the network, and the occasional loss of information is tolerable, so adapting existing voice ...
