Abstract :
Mobile computer users may have multiple computers and various communication methods available to them. Thus, effective electronic mail services in diverse mobile environments, including both wireless and wireline scenarios, can be significantly enhanced using replication services. In this paper, we discuss our adaptations of R.A. Golding´s (1992) weak-consistency group communication and membership protocols for robustness in mobile environments
