Abstract

We present two mobility design patterns, mfold and mmap. The patterns are equipped with corresponding coordination specifications, mobility skeletons, implemented on top of a host object-orientated mobile code language, Voyager. The mobility skeletons provide a high-level of abstraction and control all coordination aspects of the mobility design patterns. We conclude by demonstrating, through a simple yet concrete example, how the composite of these patterns and skeletons can be used in the development of a practical distributed application, a mobile meeting scheduler.
