Abstract

This paper argues for the adoption of a information centric system model instead of the current service-oriented one. We present an architecture for a global information storage and dissemination network which provides for efficient interaction and coordination among autonomous actors through a shared information space. We believe that the resulting, loosely coupled systems, while probabilistic in nature, will lead to robust outcomes at large scales.
