Abstract

Mobile devices have experienced a huge progress in the capacity of computing, storage and data visualization. They are becoming the device of choice for operating a large variety of applications while supporting real-time collaboration of people and their mobility. Despite this progress, the energy consumption and the network coverage remain a serious problem against an efficient and continuous use of these mobile collaborative applications and a great challenge for their designers and developers. To address these issues, this chapter describes design patterns that help modelling mobile collaborative applications to support collaboration through the cloud. Two levels are presented: the first level provides self-control to create clones of mobile devices, manage users' groups and recover failed clones in the cloud. The second level supports group collaboration mechanisms in real-time. These design patterns have been used as a basis for the design of a mobile collaborative editing application.
