Devices networking, service enablement, and clustering

Generally, edge devices such as implantables, wearables, portables, gateways, mobiles, handhelds, consumer electronics, and robots may be primarily resource-constrained. Most of these devices are not static and typically nomadic. Establishing seamless connectivity among them for process, application, and data integration is a tedious and tough affair indeed. Geo-distributed computation on edge devices, therefore, requires a lightweight, intrinsically extensible, and intelligent platform to handle extremely fragile service deployment, delivery, and management. Open Service Gateway interface (OSGi) is an interesting framework for elegantly activating and administering resource-constrained, ...
