Abstract
One of the major challenges in ambient networking is to provide interworking between heterogeneous and dynamically changing networks. This paper presents a novel network and system architecture enabling network self-organization and dynamic network composition. The proposed network architecture is based on a hierarchical overlay network model, where components of the overlays can also be overlays themselves. This introduces a self-contained network architecture argued to suit ambient networking. The network architecture is discussed together with the rules or composition principles that enforce an attracting tree structure to the hierarchical overlays. Besides the network architecture the major components of the system architecture is also presented involving the naming and addressing scheme and handling of network management data1.
