Abstract:this paper examines the fundamental limitation of adaptation based methods in the presence of unpredictability and instability in wireless network bandwidth, server loads, and usage patterns. We argue that existing adaptation based methods may fail to produce good application response time given such unpredictability and instability, because they require somehow accurate prediction on resource conditions and usage patterns in order to perform effectively. We have designed and implemented a new, simple yet powe… Show more
