A self configurable topology-aware network for smart materials

In this paper, we present an architecture to create extemporaneous networking on u-Texture. u-Texture is a tile shaped smart material which can be used to construct smart furnitures. Each u-Texture reacts according to what the entire smart furniture is shaped like. This reaction greatly affects the networking within a u-Texture. We therefore must allow dynamic arrangements within the network when a u-Texture is detached from or attached to another smart furniture. We present our tactics to implement such an self configurable topology-aware network to support applications executed on the entire smart furniture.
