Kurzfassung | When used in an outdoor environment mobile information systems often suffer from the disadvantages of wireless WANs, especially low bandwidth, high delay, and frequent disconnections. Hoarding is an effective method to overcome these disadvantages by transferring information which is probably needed by the user in advance.
In this paper we propose a generic, context-aware hoarding mechanism. When selecting the information to hoard, it considers the user's future location as well as the expected speed of movement. In contrast to existing hoarding mechanisms it is universally applicable for different types of location-dependent, mobile information systems. Its flexibility allows it to rely on different knowledge sources in order to get information about a user's context.
