Abstract: Mobile computing is a domain in great expansion. Wireless networks and Portable Information Appliances (PIAs) are developing very rapidly. More and more mobile users would like to perform their multimedia applications with the same facility as on their desktop station. Use of such applications in a mobile environment raises new challenges. These applications are interactive and extremely costly in system and network resources, whereas PIAs resources are poor and wireless networks offer a very variable quality of connection. In this paper, we propose an adaptive and dynamic distribution of applications on the local environment to overcome the poorness of available resources on PIAs, and to reduce and regulate variability effects.
