N2  - "Service and Device Discovery: Protocols and Programming is a complete survey of the state-of-the-art in an emerging field. Client/server architectures may not be new, but the world has changed around them. Increasingly complex networked environments and the proliferation of mobile devices are making highly dynamic client/service behavior the norm and not the exception. Service discovery protocols enable "plug and play" client/server architectures, where clients and services may be introduced into a network and removed at will, without configuration hassles. And service discovery is a major step toward eliminating manually installed drivers, relying instead on standard interfaces to put devices in touch."--BK JACKET
