A Resource-Aware Pairing Device Framework for Ubiquitous Cloud Applications

With the increasing capability of today's smart devices such as smart phones, tablets, TV Set-top-boxes, along the growing Cloud service offers, we see the rising opportunity to bring ubiquitous services to consumers. A device framework that aims to ease the inter-connectivity of local devices and make them aware of surrounding resources is proposed to bring better user experience within physical environments. A prototype implementation has been developed to evaluate the proposed concepts and demonstrate example use cases.
