Suitable programming models and associatedsupporting infrastructures are required to deal withlarge software systems dived in complex and dynamicnetwork environments. Here, with the aid of a casestudy scenario, we discuss the inadequacies of currentapproaches in dealing with such scenarios. Then wesketch the key characteristics of TOTA (Tuples On TheAir), as a novel proposal to deal with the aboveinadequacies. TOTA relies on tuple-based informationto be spatially diffused in the network and to beexploited by application agents so as to achieve context-awarenessand consequently to effectively coordinatewith each other despite the network dynamics.
