Abstract :
Based on an analysis of the heterogeneous systems for interconnecting distributed infrastructural devices, such as low-bandwidth sensor/actuator-networks and upcoming multimedia home networks, the paper proposes an integrating architecture for accessing various infranets via intranets and the Internet as well as telecommunication networks. Its modularity allows the rapid creation of new application scenarios
