Abstract :
Ubiquitous computer network shall include wide variety of devices. This means that the ubiquitous network certainly increases the heterogeneity of nodes connected to the Internet, while increasing the number of nodes. This paper proposes a system architecture to solve this architectural challenge by the introduction of two sub-systems: "configurable plug-in translator system77 and "dynamic management script resolver system77. The translator system provides generalized interfaces to applications, by absorbing the heterogeneous low-level interfaces with script execution engine. The behavior of every remote node is described by the script language. The resolver system achieves a global scale script repository, using DNS, inheriting the advantages of DNS, i.e., scalability, robustness and authority management capability. The integration of these two sub-systems autonomously provides application software with generalized interfaces to access any remote device node on the global Internet
