In the general research area of pervasive computing and ambient intelligence, our research tends to focus on so-called mobile networks. Mobile networks fundamentally differ from traditional, stationary networks in the following two ways:
Given these unavoidable, fundamental properties of mobile network, our research is founded on the observation of a number of so-called hardware phenomena: phenomena which have a profound impact on software, and which cannot be hidden from either developer or end-user because they are innate to the underlying hardware. The hardware phenomena we observe are:
