Many emerging IoT devices are mobile, enabling them to visit new environments and networks beyond their home networks. Mobile devices often have to interact and collaborate with users and their devices, which belong to the different administrative environments they are temporarily visiting. In this paper, we envision a system for seamless collaboration among transient devices in IoT environments. The system is based on zero-conf collaboration and allows for fine-grained access control. Our proposed design supports hardware-independent interfaces and supports a large number of devices.
