Abstract

The design of ad-hoc, wireless, peer-to-peer applications for small mobile devices raises a number of challenges for the developer, with object synchronisation, network failure, and device limitations being the most significant. In this paper, we introduce the FRAGme2004 framework for mobile P2P application development. To address data availability and stability problems, we have devised an agent-based fostering mechanism to protect applications against data losses in cases of peers dropping out. In contrast to most current literature, we focus on small scale P2P applications, especially gaming applications.
