We describe the motivation, design and initial implementation of the Equip Component Toolkit (ECT), a software toolkit for ubiquitous computing that is intended to reduce the cost – especially in time and effort – of developing ubicomp installations, applications and environments, and increase the potential involvement of designers and users in this process. The toolkit supports distributed applications running over multiple hosts by the creation, configuration and interconnection of software components (especially existing/legacy components) and components which represent physical devices and sensors. Users are supported by graphical tools which provide various representations of the running environment, plus facilities for monitoring, (re)configuration, scripting and learning by example.
