Abstract :
Existing home networking protocols such as UPnP are not ready to support media streaming services among home networks. Furthermore, a home router with NAT makes it difficult to provide such home-to-home networking services. Considering these constraints of real home network environments, we propose a personal mobile A/V control point that offers an extended home space so that users can freely control their own home and remote devices on their moving UPnP-enabled networks with zero configuration.
