We propose a collaborative environment for semantic-enabled mobile devices (e.g. PDAs, cell phones, laptops) in peer to peer scenarios. Within the environment, resource discovery is performed exploiting technologies and techniques for knowledge representation developed for the Semantic Web, which have been adapted to cope with the highly flexible structure of ad-hoc networks in ubiquitous computing. The approach exploits the standard Bluetooth stack, using the original UUID payload, to carry semantically annotated data. The environment is motivated and presented in a museum case study.
