Abstract

Mobile computers operate in constantly changing network environments. It is possible for a mobile computer to become temporarily "disconnected" from a network when it changes base stations or goes out of range of a base station. A mobile host may also "doze off" to preserve battery power. If, at the time it "goes down", a mobile computer is involved in a transaction process with another computer (mobile or static), it should be able to tolerate the "fault" of temporary disconnection. The work focuses on disconnected Web browsing from a mobile host. The current model of Web browsing is inherently sequential, and wasteful of bandwidth. The paper investigates an efficient model for browsing and presents a preliminary implementation.
