In pervasive computing, devices or peers may implement or compose services using services from other devices or peers, and may use components from various sources. A composition t...
Meta service discovery is used to find and select a service discovery mechanism by context. As multiple service discovery mechanisms (SDM) proliferate across various administrativ...
Pervasive devices interacting in open and dynamic spaces with each others require a mechanism that allows them acting autonomously in a secure way and protecting their resources. ...
This paper introduces MobiCare ? a novel service architecture that enables a wide range of health-related services for efficient and mobile patient care. These services include: (...
