Abstract:

Mobile computing environments have changed in recent years with the increasing use of different types of portable devices, ranging from mobile phones to laptops, and from MP3 players to portable storage devices (e.g. flash disks). Many of these devices have large amounts of storage, allowing users to transport most of their data with them. In this paper we briefly present the FEW file management system, a system that aims to ease file management in this new mobile environment. In particular, we detail the automatic reconciliation approach used in this system based on operational transformation. We motivate our work with a study of conflicts in data managed by version control systems.
