Dynamic machine synthesis for wireless device access and management
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- constructing a machine using devices selected from a group of devices, wherein each device in said group has short-range wireless communication ability, comprising the steps of;
starting an application template in response to an instruction from a user;
analyzing the template to determine the capabilities required for the machine;
searching in the group for devices at least one of said capabilities; and
integrating the devices searched-out in the searching step into the machine.

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.
