WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS ENVIRONMENT OVERLAY

摘要

A method is provided, wherein the method comprises identifying nearby wireless communication access points (APs) to which a client computing environment can cooperate with to communicate and receive data through a subscription to a neighborcast group from indentified nearby cooperating access points such that illustratively the neighborcast group comprises a communications overlay between cooperating client computing environments employing the identified nearby wireless communications access points. In an illustrative implementation, a wireless communications environment comprises at least two client computing environments comprising a communications overlay engine operable to process at least one instruction from an exemplary instruction set to perform one or more wireless communications operations over the exemplary communications overlay comprising scanning for cooperating client computing environments and/or wireless access points and/or RSS servers, subscribing to the communications overlay group, and publishing data for consumption by cooperating components of the wireless communications overlay.
