“…Two of such strategies are: pull and push. In the pull approach, communication is initiated by information consumer whereas the push approach relies on information producer in initiating the communication [11]. Several web technologies are found to implement pull and push strategies.…”

GeoGrid: A Scalable Location Service Network

“…Research works, such as Rebeca [10], Siena [3], are focused on efficient location-based query processing using publish-subscribe (pub-sub) networks. Their solutions focus more on content-based matching of publications to subscriptions in the pub-sub network dynamically, and did not address the issue of load balance and routing efficient in terms of hop count.…”

“…Their solutions focus more on content-based matching of publications to subscriptions in the pub-sub network dynamically, and did not address the issue of load balance and routing efficient in terms of hop count. GeoGrid development can be used as an infrastructure for publish-subscribe applications in mobile environments, support the techniques proposed in [10,4,6] while adding important dynamic load balance and routing efficiency to those solutions.…”

Publish/Subscribe Systems on Node and Link Error Prone Mobile Environments

“…Publish/subscribe model [1] is appropriate in many applications such as data dissemination services [2], information sharing [3], service discovery [4], data dissemination services, information sharing, service discovery, etc. As these kinds of services are popular in mobile and ubiquitous environments, publish/subscriber model will be more widely used.…”
