ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system and a method for simplified provision of services (1, 2) within a network (3) comprising coupled computers (4, 5), wherein the computers (4, 5) have storage means (20) for storing objects (7, 8), with the objects (7, 8) having first means (21) for loading, storing and processing descriptions (11) of groups (9, 10), with the objects (7, 8) having second means (22) for loading, storing and executing services (1, 2) assigned by the respective groups (9, 10), with a group (9, 10) having associated with it in each case the objects (7, 8) that have stored the description (11) of the respective group (9, 10), with the description (11) of a group (9, 10) determining the semantics of the services (1, 2) assigned to the respective group (9, 10), with the objects (7, 8) having search means (33) for conducting parallel searches within different groups (9, 10) for objects (7, 8) having the services (1, 2) assigned to the respective group (9, 10) and executable by the respective objects (7, 8), and with the objects (7, 8) having third means (23) for initiating the execution of the services (1, 2) which can be executed by another object (7, 8) of the group (9, 10) and are assigned to the respective group (9, 10).
