Service composition for mobile ad hoc networks using distributed matching

Ubiquitous computing envisions the existence of spaces which consist on objects with computational capabilities. These objects can be connected among each other forming wireless networks which could be very dynamic in their nature due to their mobility. Service composition aims to resolve user's needs by creating work-flows which use available functionalities, provided by devices, by assembling them into new services. This work presents an architecture for service composition applied to mobile networks which reacts to those changes which can arise in the network topology. All nodes taking part in the network contain the same architecture meaning that the solution is performed in a peer-to-peer manner distributing the processing load among different nodes of the network. Applications needing to compose services will be constructed on top of the proposed architecture. The architecture has been fully implemented and evaluated using a network simulator.
