Abstract

System, device, method, and computer program and computer program products for providing communicating between devices having similar or dissimilar characteristics and facilitating seamless interoperability between them. Computer program software and methods of and systems and devices for sharing of content, applications, resources and control across similar and dissimilar permanently or intermittently connected electronic devices. Devices, systems, appliances, and the like communicating and/or interoperating within the framework provided. Interoperability application driven error recovery system, method, and model. System and method keeps track of shared state and provides mechanism for communications errors to be relayed to an application and for application to relay recovery information directly to communications processing units. Thus applications running across devices can seamlessly recover from intermittent complete losses of communications between cooperating devices and recovery of shared state of devices when connection is restored even where previously lost device has itself lost all its application state.
