A Service Oriented Flow Pattern in Pervasive Computing Environments

There are a large number of devices and services to cooperate with each other that help users perform different kinds of tasks in pervasive computing environments, and traditional workflow technology can hardly play this important role. In this paper, a new Smartflow pattern is introduced, and in this pattern a flow is automatically generated which make devices and services to cooperate with each other to provide satisfied service for users. Author also presents an automatically generation algorithm for services flow to resolve one of key problems in Smartflow pattern. In Smartflow pattern, flow technology disappeared from users´ awareness and it is exactly the goal what pervasive computing pursues
