摘要
Mark Weiser设想的普适或无处不在的计算设想了一个计算嵌入到日常物品中的世界。这些对象相互交互以代表用户执行操作。由于普适计算的主要内容之一正在从人类的感知中消失,嵌入电子设备的应用程序必须具有前瞻性。这表明他们应该猜测用户的需求,以便随时随地为用户提供相关信息。要实现这一特性,不仅要获取有关用户的信息,还要获取有关用户所处环境的信息。这种信息可以通过与附近的主机交互,通过各种网络协议获得。应用程序可以通过异构网络(可能同时)执行主机发现来利用这一特性。然而,由于内存和存储的限制,在移动设备中嵌入所有这些协议是不合理的。因此,我们提出了一种在普遍环境中执行主机发现的灵活机制,允许在需要时插入和删除这些网络协议。
Improving flexibility on host discovery for pervasive computing middlewares
The vision of pervasive or ubiquitous computing, conceived by Mark Weiser, foresees a world where computing is embedded in every day objects. Such objects interact with each other to perform actions on behalf of the user. As one of the mains of pervasive computing is to disappear from human perception, applications embedded in electronic devices must be proactive. This indicates that they should guess the needs of the users in order to provide them with anytime, anywhere relevant information. This characteristic must be achieved by acquiring information not only about the user, but also about the environment where he/she is immersed. This kind of information can be obtained by interacting with nearby hosts, trough a variety of networking protocols. Applications can take advantage of this characteristic by performing host discovery through heterogeneous networks, possibly at the same time. However, due to memory and storage constraints, it is not reasonable to embed all of such protocols in a mobile device. Therefore, we propose a flexible mechanism for performing host discovery in pervasive environments, allowing the insertion and removal of these networking protocols whenever needed.
