First Claim
1. An apparatus for use with a plurality of resources integrated within a space for performing a process and a program run by a processor for controlling the process, the apparatus for associating the resources with the program and comprising:
- a processor running a program to perform the steps of;
identifying at least a first reference point within the space;
identifying the relative juxtaposition of at least a first resource with respect to the first reference point; and
associating the first resource with the program as a function of the relative juxtaposition of the first resource to the reference point.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for use with a plurality of resources integrated within a space for performing a process and a program run by a processor for controlling the process, the apparatus for associating the resources with the program and comprising a processor running a program to perform the steps of identifying at least a first reference point within the space, identifying the relative juxtaposition of at least a first resource with respect to the first reference point and associating the first resource with the program as a function of the relative juxtaposition of the first resource to the reference point.

13. An apparatus for use with a plurality of network linked resources located within a space for performing a process, the apparatus for assigning a network address to at least a first resource to enable communication therewith and comprising:
-
a processor programmed to perform the steps of; identifying at least a first reference point within the space; identifying the relative juxtaposition of the at least a first resource with respect to the at least a first reference point; and assigning a first network address to the at least a first resource as a function of the relative juxtaposition of the at least a first resource to the reference point. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)

17. An associating system for use with a plurality of resources to be linked via a network within an environment to perform a process and a processor running a program to control the process, the program including at least one of a program input and a program output tag for each of the resources, the apparatus for facilitating association of tags and resources and comprising:
-
at least a first information device; a processor running a pulse sequencing program to perform the steps of; associating a space within the environment with the process; determining the location of the information device within the environment; and when the information device is proximate at least a sub-space within the space, identifying the resources to be positioned within the sub-space, identifying the tags associated with the resources and indicating the tags associated with the resources. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
