Abstract
Development of new technologies brings people new possibilities such as smart spaces. Smart spaces can provide better user experience by allowing a user to connect new devices flexibly and to access all the information in the multi device system from any of the devices. The paper describes work-in-progress performed under a joint project of SPIIRAS and Nokia. The project is aimed at the analysis of existing anonymous agent coordination languages and adaptation of them to coordination of smart space devices.
