Abstract
Tuple Space based Mobile Middleware (TSMM), with tuple space as coordination medium, exhibits multiple decoupling qualities during coordination, which enhances its robustness and flexibility and makes it an appropriate coordination platform for underlying mobile and dynamic networks. However, formal semantics of TSMM are required for reasoning TSMM as coordination platform, which also help in developing supported applications. This paper suggests an approach of formalizing TSMM that can be deployed over multiple heterogeneous mobile and dynamic networks. Formalization is carried out using Mobile UNITY.
