Your device would immediately be recognized, and you would have access to the services at that location—transparently.

Jini is Sun's Java-based technology, with potential to make transparant, "universal plug and play" a reality. This book is an expanded, updated version of the most popular online tutorial for Jini. Author Jan Newmarch includes comprehensive Jini advancements announced at Java One in June 2000. And he includes other important topics, like how Enterprise Java Beans blend in with the Jini framework and how CORBA fits in as well.
