Abstract

Tasks can be done on a network of multiple Knowbot Service Station computers (56a, 56b). At each of the computers (56a, 56b), Knowbot Programs (54a, 54b) may be received and transmitted on the communication links, and may be stored and created in the Knowbot Service Environment (50). Each Knowbot Program (54a, 54b) includes a globally unique identifier, navigation information defining a route through the network; and information concerning a task to be done. Knowbot Programs (54a, 54b) may interact with each other and other network resources through observing Knowbot Emissary rules and possibly purchase or contract for goods and services by means of Knowbot charge currency. Self-authenticating Knowbot Service Stations (56a, 56b, ...), in the Knowbot Framework (28), create and authenticate Knowbot Programs (54a, 54b), protect data as well as control its application in the network environment according to stated terms and conditions.
