 ===== Tuples on the Ambient (TOTAM) =====
-TOTAM is a communication abstraction to enable pervasive social interactivity: it make possible that flockrs can communicate with each other without being connected at the same time while maintaining privacy and limited network traffic.
+TOTAM is an extension to the TOTA tuple space model which introduces a scoping mechanism to delimit the physical transportation of tuples.
-The basic communications API of the framework provides means to address and communicate with individual flockrs by means of remote objects references.
-However, communicating with a large amount of flockrs in this fashion does not scale (as it would require to manually manage a group of remote references whose composition change often).
-Instead, we have designed a dedicated communication abstraction for flock communication called //TOTAM//.
