The implications of using mobile wireless
communications are significant for emerging peer-to-peer
(P2P) collaborative environments. From a networking
perspective, the use of wireless technologies to support
collaboration may impact bandwidth and spectrum
utilization. This paper explores the effects of providing
feedback to system users regarding wireless P2P network
behavior on the performance of collaboration support
applications. We refer to this operational feedback as
"network awareness." The underlying premise is that
providing feedback on the status of the network will
enable users to self-organize their behavior to maintain
quality of data sharing. Results achieved during an
experiment conducted at the Naval Postgraduate School
demonstrate significant effects of roaming on application
sharing performance and integration with client-server
applications. A solution for improving network aware
P2P collaboration, identified in the experiment, is
discussed.
