proximity-based ad hoc federation among smart objects and its applications
This extended abstract first proposes a new formal model of autonomic proximity-based federation among physical smart objects with wireless network connectivity and services available on the Internet, and then shows some of its application frameworks. Federation here denotes the definition and execution of interoperation among physical smart objects and/or services that are accessible either through the Internet or through peer-to-peer ad hoc communication.
