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.
