With the advent of third and fourth generation wireless infrastructure, and the simultaneous emergency of pervasive connectivity for all devices based on bluetooth like systems and ad-hoc networks, a new vista is open for research in the area. We propose ideas for a research program aimed at realizing ubiquitous computing systems based on the cooperation of autonomous, dynamic and adaptive components (hardware as well as software) which are located in vicinity of one another. These systems will be composed of a collection of independently designed components that automatically become aware of each other, establish basic (wireless) communication, exchange information about their capabilities and requirements, discover and exchange APIs, and learn to cooperate effectively to accomplish their individual and collective goals. The proposed work will enable a new class of applications that effectively use mobility and pervasive computing. We address several research problems that span the fields of distributed computing, data management, and dynamic collaboration between components. The team of researchers is located at UMBC and UI-Chicago, and plans to interact closely with collaborators at industrial labs (IBM, Hughes, Sun).

随着第三代和第四代无线基础设施的出现，以及基于蓝牙类系统和自组织网络的所有设备普遍连接的同时紧急情况，该领域的研究呈现出新的前景。 我们提出了一项研究计划的想法，旨在实现基于彼此邻近的自主、动态和自适应组件（硬件和软件）协作的普适计算系统。 这些系统将由一组独立设计的组件组成，这些组件会自动相互了解、建立基本（无线）通信、交换有关其功能和需求的信息、发现和交换 API，并学会有效地合作以完成各自的任务。集体目标。 拟议的工作将实现有效利用移动性和普适计算的新型应用程序。 我们解决了跨越分布式计算、数据管理和组件之间的动态协作领域的几个研究问题。 研究人员团队位于 UMBC 和 UI-Chicago，并计划与工业实验室（IBM、Hughes、Sun）的合作者密切互动。
