Abstract
Mobility has become a central aspect of the lives of the most industrialized countries citizens ? in business, education, and leisure. Due to rapid technological and social changes there has been a widespread of cheap wireless and wired technologies, which can communicate each other creating an huge set of potential users and services in a pervasive world. This potential business could become concrete only if users can find the available services and get access to them easily and automatically. In this futuristic scenario a very important role is played by the Service Discovery, Service Composition and Service Provisioning Platforms. In this article we will describe an innovative Service Discovery and Service Provisioning architecture based on an open standardized platform: the OSGi framework. This work presents first results of the service provisioning and service discovery design activity which is being carried out within DAIDALOS (Designing Advanced network Interfaces for the Delivery and Administration of Location independent, Optimised personal Services [1]), a project granted in the European 6th Framework Research Programme, within the IST (Information Society and Technology) thematic area.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
