Intelligent distribution of demanding services and applications to mobile thin clients

hin client solutions (where processing is delegated primarily to a remote server) have been extremely successful in wired LAN settings, because of cost reduction, inherent data security and privacy, more efficient use of resources and ubiquitous data and service access. The MobiThin project is meant to grant the same advantages in a mobile environment. In this respect, architecture and technology issues (wireless medium optimisation, dedicated video codec and user pattern search, software/middleware, performance and energy saving) as well as economic ones (business roles and models) will be addressed.

Combined with the existing wired technologies, the MobiThin impact is to:

• run your application EVERYWHERE,
• CONNECT mobile and wireless users,
• use every DEVICE on every network.
