Abstract

Multiple computing devices in close proximity must usually rely on the Internet in order to share information, even though doing so is grossly inefficient and subject to external factors. A method to facilitate this sort of local sharing in a secure manner could help alleviate these issues. This study proposes to demonstrate the substantial demand for a more efficient and interactive means to exchange information among networks of people. We will detail how this project will result in a software protocol capable of linking mobile devices for the purpose of sending and receiving data through manipulation of available technology, pursuit of developing computer systems, and creation of an innovative program. The tasks at hand do not rely on innovation through "brute force" development of new hardware, but rather on manipulation of existing technology through revolutionary software.
