Abstract: At least certain embodiments of the present disclosure include a framework for turning one or more multifunctional devices coupled to a personal area network (PAN) into virtual accessories of another multifunctional device coupled to the PAN. In one embodiment, connection between a multifunctional device and a PAN is established, where the PAN is further coupled to a set of multifunctional devices. One or more distributed functionalities associated with a multi-device capable application are assigned to each multifunctional device based on relationship between the multifunctional devices. At least part of the multi-device capable application is shared between the multifunctional devices. Using the multifunctional device, the one or more distributed functionalities are performed in collaboration with the other multifunctional devices.

Abstract translation: 本公开的至少某些实施例包括用于将耦合到个人区域网络（PAN）的一个或多个多功能设备转换成耦合到PAN的另一多功能设备的虚拟附件的框架。 在一个实施例中，建立了多功能设备和PAN之间的连接，其中PAN进一步耦合到一组多功能设备。 基于多功能设备之间的关系将与多设备能力应用相关联的一个或多个分布式功能分配给每个多功能设备。 在多功能设备之间共享至少部分具有多设备能力的应用。 使用多功能设备，与其他多功能设备协同执行一个或多个分布式功能。

Abstract: In the described embodiments, a connection data exchange (“CDX”) service serves as an exchange point for connection data for establishing peer-to-peer (“P2P”) connections between devices. During operation, the CDX service can receive a connection data structure (a “ticket”) that was created by a matchmaker or an invitation service in response to requests from devices attempting to establish P2P connections. Each ticket can identify a corresponding device and can include encrypted NAT hole-punch data associated with the corresponding device. The CDX service can authenticate each ticket and decrypt the NAT hole punch data from the ticket using a corresponding key. The CDX service can then use corresponding NAT hole punch data to send connection data to each of the devices that reside behind NAT devices.

Abstract translation: 在所描述的实施例中，连接数据交换（“CDX”）服务用作用于在设备之间建立点对点（“P2P”）连接的连接数据的交换点。 在操作期间，CDX服务可以接收由配对者或邀请服务响应于尝试建立P2P连接的设备的请求而创建的连接数据结构（“票证”）。 每张票可以识别相应的设备，并且可以包括与相应设备相关联的加密的NAT打孔数据。 CDX服务可以使用对应的密钥对每个票证进行身份验证，并从票据中解密NAT打孔数据。 然后，CDX服务可以使用相应的NAT穿孔数据将连接数据发送到驻留在NAT设备之后的每个设备。
