Super Distributed Objects Model and Autonomous Plug and Play for Context-Aware Services
The ubiquitous networks are enabling to connect real-world and computer systems through devices and much attention is being paid to the context-aware services. One of the issues to provide a context-aware service is ad hoc discovery and binding among service applications and devices. This paper proposes a new object model named Super Distributed Objects, which provides an extensible description and discovery of objects by introducing a composite model. Autonomous plug and play techniques are also proposed based on this model to achieve context-awareness in discovery and binding of objects. The proposed model and techniques have been implemented on Web Services and its effectiveness has been evaluated.
