  • Patent number: 6993398
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for effective wireless device access and management via device capability integration. A method for constructing a machine using a plurality of devices selected from a group of devices, wherein each device in the group is configurable for providing short-range wireless communication, includes the steps of: starting an application template in response to an instruction from a user; analyzing the template to determine one or more capabilities required for the machine; searching in the group for devices substantially matching at least one of the capabilities; and integrating the matching devices into the machine.

  • Publication number: 20030177159
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dynamic machine synthesis method for effective wireless device access and management via device capability integration. Simple devices can be assembled into dynamic machines (DM) through the method to provide integrated access and management methods to end-users and thus bring true convenience and flexibility. Thus comprehensive applications or service requirements can be addressed with a group of simple devices. Devices themselves are no longer treated as individual ones but integral parts of a DM. The method also provides a new means to solve complex problems by using dynamic machines instead of designing and manufacturing new real machines, so that we can just build a DM in time of need and disassemble it when it is no longer needed.
