Abstract :
The research topic of U-spaces is drifting towards the practical implementation. We have presented application scenario of a ubiquitous kitchen environment. The scenario is made using some smart devices communicating to each other and sharing the context via a kitchen server. By addition of limited level of smartness in the appliances, ubiquitous services are developed that makes the job for an autonomous ubiquitous system far more easier and technical issues, less complex. One of our objectives in this paper is to increase the quality and reduce the link cost so that the convergence of large number of devices can be made possible.
