The project researches a new form of operating system to manage a model ofcomputing called an Active Space. It integrates physical spaces that containubiquitous computers into a computational environment that supports humanactivity and applications. With anytime/anywhere ubiquitous devices, theusers' view of the computational environment is extended beyond the physicallimits of a computer and is placed into the surrounding physical space,augmented with computers that sense and affect that space around the user.Applications become mapped not just to views associated with specificwindows in a monitor but instead to the physical environment. Therefore,the physical space, augmented with communicating computer devices, becomes adistributed computing system.Active Spaces have the potential for creating multi-billion dollarindustries. Automated surgery, collaboration and engaged learning are a fewof the compelling examples. Gaia, an operating system for Active Spaces,will accommodate diversity by exploiting standards for interoperation andcooperation. System services track, authenticate and support mobile userswith reconfigurable graphics, multimedia and Active Space applications. Aunifying object bus, component model, and adaptive stream model extends plugand play to distributed mobile ubiquitous computers cooperating to support acomputational environment within physical spaces like cities, buildings androoms.

该项目研究一种新形式的操作系统来管理称为活动空间的计算模型。它将包含无处不在的计算机的物理空间集成到支持人类活动和应用程序的计算环境中。借助随时随地无处不在的设备，用户对计算环境的视图超出了计算机的物理限制，并被放置到周围的物理空间中，并通过感知和影响用户周围空间的计算机进行了增强。应用程序不仅映射到与监视器中的特定窗口关联的视图，而且还映射到物理环境。 因此，通过通信计算机设备增强的物理空间成为分布式计算系统。活动空间具有创造数十亿美元产业的潜力。 自动化手术、协作和参与式学习是一些引人注目的例子。 Gaia 是 Active Spaces 的操作系统，将通过利用互操作和合作标准来适应多样性。 系统服务通过可重新配置的图形、多媒体和 Active Space 应用程序跟踪、验证和支持移动用户。 统一的对象总线、组件模型和自适应流模型将即插即用扩展到分布式移动无处不在的计算机，这些计算机相互协作以支持城市、建筑物和房间等物理空间内的计算环境。
