TY - JOUR AU - Myers, Jack AB - Wireless Grid computing extends the traditional Grid computing paradigm to include a diverse collection of mobile devices enabled to communicate using radio frequency, infrared, optical and other wireless mechanisms. Among the devices coming into use in wireless grid implementations are tiny sensors, Radio Frequency Identification tags (RFID). Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and paging devices, cellular phones, hand-held or wearable computers, laptop computers and special purpose computers embedded into many modern appliances [8, 26, 29]. Though many of these devices were initially developed to serve a specific, autonomous purpose, their potential for cooperation through the sharing of resources and capabilities, and the massive amounts of resources available due to their numbers, is quickly leading to applications resembling traditional Grid computing.
