Creating a system on the fly and applications thereof

摘要

Disclosed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for creating a system of wireless-enabled components (WECs). Such a system includes a server and a plurality of wireless-enabled component (WECs). Each WEC includes a functional resource (e.g., a processing resource and/or a memory resource) and is configured for wireless communication with the server and one or more other WECs. A first WEC is configured to wirelessly upload, to the server, an availability of the functional resource of the first WEC. The first WEC is further configured to wirelessly download, from the server, a linking resource for linking with one or more of the plurality of WECs. The plurality of WECs may be located on a single chip, on multiple chips of a single device, or on multiple chips of multiple devices.

主权项

1. A method, implemented in a wireless-enabled component (WEC), for creating a system of WECs on the fly, comprising:
searching, using a predetermined search algorithm, an environment for one or more other WECs; wirelessly uploading, to a server, an availability of a functional resource of the WEC, wherein the functional resource includes a memory resource or a processing resource; wirelessly downloading, from the server, a linking resource for linking with the one or more other WECs, wherein the linking resource identifies the one or more other WECs and associated capabilities of the one or more other WECs; and wirelessly communicating with at least one WEC of the one or more other WECs based on the downloaded linking resource.
