A middleware for rapid prototyping smart environments: experiences in research and teaching

Published: 26 September 2010 Publication History

Abstract

While developing distributed systems, like for example a smart environment, a powerful middleware is required - not only for the communication between different devices, but also to support the developers. In this paper, we discuss our system, which has been developed with a special focus on the needs in research and teaching in ubiquitous computing. It is based on a tuple space as underlying storage and a simple network protocol. The system turns out to be very well suited for both application areas.
