Abstract

As middlewares are more and more spanning over larger networks, towards world-wide grid computing, communicating with mobile objects in a scalable and reliable manner becomes an important and difficult issue. This paper proposes a parametric protocol for such communications. Based on Time To Live (TTL) forwarders, and Time To Update (TTU) mobile objects, it allows to get the best of those two well-known techniques (forwarders, servers). As a parametric protocol, it can be adapted to various network conditions.
