1 Introduction
The C0PE project explores system issues that arise
when an individual's computing environment is
spread across dozens of information devices. The
goals are (i) to provide a consistent view of each in-
dividual's personal information space, (ii) to drive
the incremental cost of adding, maintaining, and us-
ing additional devices near zero, and (iii) to provide
a highly trustworthy environment.
Because of the remarkable successes of hardware
engineering and architecture as well as economies
of scale, powerful $100 and even $10 information
access devices are on the horizon. In the future,
users will each have dozens of devices to access
data and services. These devices include both tradi-
tional computing and communication devices (e.g.,
