Abstract
Developing a distributed information sharing solution (DISS) for mobile environments is a challenging task if requirements on functionality, availability, consistency, scalability, robustness, performance and adaptability are to be taken into account. A combination of different concepts and mechanisms must be applied, and functionality representing high implementation costs must be avoided. In the MIDAS project a conceptual basis for such a solution has been developed and implemented. The paper describes this work, and how its functional and quality properties have been verified in a simulation environment.
