CooS: Coordination Support for Mobile Collaborative Applications

The advent of mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, and their integration with cloud computing is turning ubiquitous computing into reality. This ubiquity opens doors to innovative applications, where mobile devices collaborate on behalf of their users. Applications that leverage this new paradigm, however, have yet to reach the market. One of the reasons is due to the inherent complexity of developing such collaborative applications on mobile devices.
