Summary:In traditional ways of managing data, the relationship between the
data and the geographical location of the organization it represents, is
usually ignored. In wireless computing this property of “location
transparency” is in fact often replaced by a “location
dependency” property. Furthermore, the mode of issuing queries
(the geographical location where the queries originate, the way they are
issued, etc.) on such data determines the outcome. Location dependent
data is data whose value depends on its location. The objective of the
paper is to introduce this topic and spawn further related
research
