Abstract :
The widespread adoption of powerful mobile devices creates an unprecedented potential for innovative mobile applications that can enhance users´ social interactions. The current centralized mobile system and service architectures do not allow large-scale dynamic interactions between mobile devices, as required by these applications. This paper proposes Mobius, a decentralized solution that supports mobile social applications via a two-tier software infrastructure. In Mobius, a socially-aware peer-to-peer tier provides community-oriented data and persistent services for the mobile tier that runs the applications.
