Abstract

The paper describes the issue of power conservation on mobile clients, e.g., palmtop computers, and suggests that signature methods are suitable for real-time information filtering on wireless communication services. Two signature-based approaches, namely simple signature and multi-level signature schemes, are presented. Cost models for access time and tune-in time of these two approaches are developed
