Netquest: An Abstract Model for Pervasive Applications
Résumé
One of the barriers to the implementation and deployment of pervasive applications is the lack of a programming abstraction for ubiquitous computing. We propose a system (i) that supports a declarative programming language, Netlog, well suited to rapid prototyping of distributed applications, (ii) which relies on an embedded DBMS, which facilitates its implementation and its portability over heterogeneous devices, and (iii) supports important functionalities such as implicit routing or adaptive behavior.
