Optofluidics is an emerging field that involves the use of fluids to modify optical properties and the use of optical devices to detect flowing media. Ultimately, its value is highly dependent on the successful integration of photonic integrated circuits with microfluidic or nanofluidic systems. Handbook of Optofluidics provides a snapshot of the state of the field, captures current trends, and gives insight into the technology of tomorrow, which will enable researchers to tackle challenges and opportunities that it can uniquely answer.

Software in mobile and ubiquitous computing scenarios has to cope with a highly dynamic and heterogeneous environment. For tapping the environments full potential, software should be able to dynamically adapt on demand in a platform- and language-independent manner (e.g., by migration). Current systems have only limited support for the requested dynamics and heterogeneity. In the context of this work, the SAMProc middleware is designed. SAMProc supports software developers in creating such adaptive applications. In the SAMProc approach, applications are able to dynamically change the location...
