Limitations of Mobile Computing

What is Mobile Computing? Mobile computing ─ ability to use the technology to wirelessly connect to and use centrally located information and/or application software through the application of small, portable, and wireless computing and communication devices voice, data and multimedia communication standards Limitations Resource constraints: Battery Interference: the quality of service (QoS) Bandwidth: connection latency Dynamic changes in communication environment: variations in signal power within a region, thus link delays and connection losses Network Issues: discovery of the connection-service to destination and connection stability Interoperability issues: the varying protocol standards Security constraints: Protocols conserving privacy of communication
