A Framework for Active Ubiquitous Application Services

In this paper we present an overlay infrastructure for provisioning content services over the Internet. This provides a uniform framework to develop ubiquitous application services and deploy it on a shared active infrastructure on need basis. This meta-protocol powered framework is intended to support a wide array of emerging application service scenarios, ranging from simple caching and content customization to adaptation for ubiquitous computing, co-operative filtering, content-mining, to high performance multimedia transcoding.
