Abstract


Existing distributed systems do not provide a viable solution for information
distribution over wireless ad-hoc networks. Existing implementations are missing
vital features for a decentralised network and information caching. Distributed
systems over ad-hoc networks require a solid service implementation which is
portable enough to reliably distribute arbitrary data. This projects aims to
solve these problems by designing and implementing a service which offers
information distribution based on location awareness over decentralised
networks. The service will also provide advanced features for object caching,
pre-emptive caching and location awareness. The solution offered in this report
is a solid software implementation which can be used in real life situations,
over large or small areas with wireless connectivity, to distribute information
between peers.
