Abstract

Networked Surfaces are surfaces such as desks whichprovide network connectivity to specially augmented de-vices, for example handheld computers.When the devicesare physically placed on top of the surface,they can connectto different kinds of services-mainly, but not exclusively tosend and receive data.This paper discusses challenges in implementing Net-worked Surfaces, paying particular attention to data flowissues, focusing on how the various software and hardwareentities comprising the Surface interact to transport data toand from objects.
