Abstract

With the increasing popularity of blogs (online journals) as a medium for expressing personal thoughts and advice, and users becoming more mobile, we foresee an opportunity for such opinionated content to be utilised as information sources in the mobile arena. In this short paper, we present IRMAN (Information Retrieval in Mobile Adhoc Networks), a software framework for Peer-to-Peer (P2P) IR over Mobile AdHoc Networks (MANET). A Java based prototype system has been developed based on the aforementioned framework for creating, retrieving, and sharing user blogs on handhelds in mobile social cyberspaces.
