Abstract :
The greatest challenges for the Infoverse and a global information visualization environment concern the inherent limitations of mobile data appliances. The biggest limitations are low communication bandwidth, limited computing resources (in terms of storage capacity, computing power, and data entry and presentation capabilities) for complex information formats and services, and temporary unavailability (for example, through disconnection)
