Description
Summary:Push-based delivery has motivated a growing interest, allowing dissemination of information to a large set of users, both in wired and wireless environments. In this paper, we present GIL, a software tool to automate the development process of information dissemination applications, which run on top of Ubidata, our software framework for mobile computing.
