heal.abstract	XML technologies provide proven benefits for the configuration management of complex heterogeneous multi-vendor networks. These benefits have been recently manifested in numerous research, industrial and standardization efforts, including the XMLNET architecture. In this paper we present UbiXML, a system for programmable management of ubiquitous computing resources. UbiXML extends the benefits of XML technologies in the broader class of ubiquitous computing environments, which are inherently complex distributed heterogeneous and multi-vendor. In UbiXML management applications are structured as XML documents that incorporate programming constructs. Thus, UbiXML allows administrators to build sophisticated management applications with little or no programming effort. While UbiXML builds on several XMLNET concepts, it significantly augments XMLNET to handle management of sensors, perceptual components and actuating devices. Moreover, UbiXML is extensible towards additional ubiquitous computing elements. UbiXML has been exploited in implementing realistic management applications for a smart space.
