| Abstract | Plug-and-Play Networking means that a component in the network has the ability to automatically configure itself according to its capabilities, its environment and changes in its environment. In the dynamic plug-and-play system, a component does not have a fixed functionality (behavior). Rather their functionality is assigned to them according to the needs in the system and the component's capabilities. The functionality of a component may be changed later as need arise. A dynamic component is a component framework that enables the creation of a flexib le component that allow its functionality to be change after it has been deploy. A predefined service is the basic capabilities of the component; an installable service is functionalities that can be assigned to the component. An installable service may depend on a component's predefined service. The functionality available at a component is represents by its service interface. Each functionality has exactly one service interface associated to it and vice versa. The dynamic component use remote evaluation paradigm of code mobility to supports its dynamism. The Simple Dynamic Plug-and-Play architecture (SDPnP) is a dynamic plug-and-play architecture based on dynamic component framework. An SDPnP system consists of two or more interacting instances of SDPnP component, a specialization of the dynamic component. An SDPnP component locates each other by the help of a directory component. If an optional manager component is present, it will monitor and control the behavior of all SDPnP components in the system as well as the overall behavior of the system itself. The manager component also provides the installable service management functionalities. |
