Abstract

The ever growing amount of data generated and consumed on the move using portable devices gives rise to serious data management issues. The fact that each person may own and is likely to carry several such devices further aggravates this problem. On the other hand, new opportunities for achieving cleverer device interaction emerge due to the increased wireless networking capabilities of wearable and portable devices. This paper introduces OmniStore, a system that combines portable devices and infrastructure-based services to relieve the user from explicit and time consuming file management tasks. Our approach is to let devices communicate with each other as well as with a repository service, in an opportunistic and asynchronous fashion, to perform a variety of file movement and copying actions behind the scenes, which would have typically required considerable explicit user interaction.
