Dynamic Reconfiguration in Pervasive Computing

What is dynamic reconfiguration in pervasive computing?

• Dynamic reconfiguration is a technique for enhancing user interface design in pervasive computing.

• Dynamic reconfiguration refers to the physical relocation of devices in pervasive computing.

• Dynamic reconfiguration is a method for data storage in pervasive computing.

• Dynamic reconfiguration enables real-time adaptation of systems in pervasive computing.

Name one technique used for dynamic reconfiguration.

• Hot swapping

• Static reconfiguration

• Cold swapping

• Dynamic loading

How does dynamic reconfiguration improve system performance?

• It eliminates the need for software updates.

• It simplifies the system architecture.

• Dynamic reconfiguration improves system performance by enabling real-time resource allocation and optimization.

• It reduces the need for hardware upgrades.

What are interoperability standards in pervasive computing?

• Interoperability standards restrict communication between devices.

• Interoperability standards are only applicable to software applications.

• Interoperability standards in pervasive computing are protocols and guidelines that enable seamless communication and data exchange between different devices and systems.

• Interoperability standards are guidelines for hardware manufacturing.

Give an example of an interoperability standard.

• W3C Standards

• ISO 9001

• DICOM

• HL7

Why is interoperability important in pervasive systems?

• Interoperability complicates the integration of devices and applications.

• Pervasive systems do not require any form of communication.

• Interoperability is only necessary for large organizations.

• Interoperability is important in pervasive systems because it enables seamless communication and collaboration between diverse devices and applications.

Describe a common architecture used in pervasive computing.

• Two-layer architecture: hardware and software

• Single-layer architecture

• Three-layer architecture: perception layer, network layer, application layer.

• Four-layer architecture: user interface, middleware, data layer, and application layer

What role does middleware play in pervasive systems?

• Middleware is primarily responsible for user interface design in pervasive systems.

• Middleware is used solely for data storage in pervasive systems.

• Middleware restricts communication between applications in pervasive systems.

• Middleware enables communication and integration between diverse applications and devices in pervasive systems.

Name a popular middleware for pervasive computing.

• RabbitMQ

• ActiveMQ

• Jini

• Apache Kafka

What is context-aware computing?

• A programming language for mobile apps

• A type of cloud computing service

• Context-aware computing is a technology that enables systems to gather, interpret, and respond to contextual information to provide personalized and relevant services.

• A method for enhancing computer graphics
