>Abstract:
>  In a pervasive computing environment, the number
>  and variety of resources (services, devices, and contextual
>  information resources) make it necessary for applications to
>  accurately discover the best ones quickly. Thus a resource-discovery
>  service, which locates specific resources and establishes network
>  connections as better resources become available, is necessary for
>  those applications. The performance of the resource-discovery service
>  is important when the applications are in a dynamic and mobile
>  environment. In this thesis, however, we do not focus on the resource-
>  discovery technology itself, but the evaluation of the scalability and
>  mobility of the resource discovery module in Solar, a context fusion
>  middleware. Solar has a naming service that provides resource
>  discovery, since the resource names encode static and dynamic
>  attributes. The results of our experiments show that Solar's
>  resource discovery performed generally well in a typical dynamic 
> environment,
>  although Solar can not be scaled as well as it should. And we identify the
>   implementation issues related to that problem.  We
>  also discuss experience, insights, and lessons learned from our
>  quantitative analysis of the experiment results.
