Abstract

Developing software for dynamic pervasive computing networks can be an intimidating prospect. While much research has focused on developing and describing algorithms and protocols for these environments, the process of deploying these technologies is far from mature or streamlined. Furthermore, the heterogeneity of pervasive computing platforms can make the deployment task unapproachable. In this paper, we describe the evolving tuples model and demonstrate how a simple protocol can be quickly and easily developed. Since the evolving tuples infrastructure serves as a unifying base across heterogeneous platforms, the resulting implementation inherently supports cross-platform deployment, a common scenario for pervasive computing.
