Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide dynamic machine synthesis method for implementing effective wireless device access and management through integrated device capabilities. SOLUTION: With the method, simple devices can be integrated into a dynamic machine (DM) so as to provide an end user with integrated access and management methods, thereby providing true flexibility and convenience. Thus, complex applications or service requirements can be satisfied with a group of simple devices. Devices themselves are no longer treated as individual devices but as the constituent components of a DM. The method also provides a new approach for solving complex problems by using dynamic machine instead of designing and manufacturing new real machines, people could just build DMs in time of need and disassemble them whenever they are no longer needed with little cost.

Abstract:
The system has several document processing subsystems (5,5'), each of which receives processing requests in a special message format and fulfils the requests. The system also contains a service platform subsystem (3) that communicates with different portable equipment according to the special communications methods and formats to receive processing requests from users and several message adapters (4,4'). The service platform subsystem converts requests into a common format and passes them to message adapters, which pass the requests to the processing subsystems in special message formats required by the processing subsystems.
