Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a controller module comprising instructions for controlling a first component, wherein the controller module is provided dynamically; a storage system storing a set of semantic programming that enables a second component to understand the semantics of a set of universal interfaces associated with the controller module; and the second component with a security system that interacts with the controller module to implement a security protocol before the second component can control the first component based on executing the instructions in the controller module, wherein the controller module provides secure control of communications between the first component and the second component, and wherein the security system decrypts an encrypted controller module to perform a portion of the security protocol, the second component controlling the first component based upon the execution of the instructions in the controller module without the second component having prior knowledge of the first component, wherein the stored set of semantic programming enables secure ad hoc interaction between the first and second components.
