The realm of pervasive computing is expanding at a fast pace, and the need for more generalized protocols and systems is in high demand. Bluetooth is a technology with great potential, but it runs over specific protocols standardized only for other Bluetooth devices. This limits connectivity and control of these devices. CORE, the communication-oriented routing environment, is a generalized message-based routing and inter-connect system that provides an implementation and framework for platform-independent, device-independent services and applications over TCP/IP. More importantly, CORE exposes a routing mechanism that allows extensions and abstractions through levels of indirection. Our implementation of CORE allows us to design an extension that will allow Bluetooth and non- Bluetooth devices to communicate, use, and control Bluetooth devices through CORE.
