An autonomic architecture to manage Ubiquitous Computing networks and applications

Abstract

The current Internet, while successful in many aspects, has a set of associated architectural and business problems that threaten its stability and inhibit new advances, such as seamlessly supporting Ubiquitous Computing applications. This paper proposes a set of autonomic mechanisms that can manage the Future Internet. The context-aware governance features of this approach are particularly suitable for also enabling Ubiquitous Computing applications.
