Ubiquitous Computing Entity-aware Data Management on Mobile Devices

Participating journal: Mobile Networks and Applications
Mobile computing has become a prevalent and powerful technology that has altered the way it conducts business. There is a great deal of data management in mobile computing, and it is important to understand some of its functions. Mobile computing has created new challenges for data management. Users have been shifting their computer activities to mobile devices and creating more data than ever before. Companies need to know how to manage and protect the growing volume of all types of data on today’s tablets and smartphones. Data management is a key factor in maintaining the health of mobile computing devices. Today, data is essential for working efficiently and effectively. With the ease of accessibility, information can be transferred from one device to another with minimal effort. However, with mobility comes potential hazard through security breaches and loss of data due to deletion or formatting errors. Entity-aware Data Management on Mobile Devices (EDMD) is a new research direction that aims to enable intelligent, efficient, and scalable solutions for managing data on mobile devices. With the introduction of entity-aware data management on mobile devices, we are on the verge of new possibilities. Historically, data management has been restricted to structured data due to its tendency to fit in fixed categories and the need for predefined systems of organization and processing. With the advent of entity-aware data management for unstructured data, a whole new world opens up for problems that were previously too demanding or impossible to solve with traditional approaches to computation With the ever-increasing popularity of mobile devices, it is likely that data management capabilities will need to be enhanced through Entity-aware Data Management on Mobile Devices. Mobile devices have enabled a new generation of computing applications, ranging from social networking to real-time information delivery. To take advantage of this revolution, there is an urgent need to develop entity-aware data management solutions that enable ubiquitous computing on mobile devices. Such solutions are still lacking due to their heavy reliance on the traditional client-server paradigm and limitations in scalability. In this special issue, we will bring together researchers working in this area by focusing on intelligent entity-aware data management algorithms for large-scale mobile devices. The proposed research areas include social networks, location-based services, and sensor data collection.
