Title
AbSM: agent-based session mobility
Abstract
In most cases a program, its execution state and saved files - the latter two are commonly called "session" - are confined to a physical host. We present a novel system for supporting session mobility that enables the user to break this law of locality, and instead creates a relation between the session and himself. Nowadays most people own several devices, like a notebook or a smartphone, for satisfying their mobility and flexibility needs. To support an almost automatic session handover between different devices a mobile agent system has been used. The selection of target devices has also been automated based on the usage context, the device's capabilities and a rough estimation of the actual location. To demonstrate the capabilities of our Agent-based Session Mobility platform (AbSM) a "multimedia session" use case has been realized where a video session is migrated from a notebook to a smartphone and vice versa. Please note that security issues concerning the session migration are out of scope.
