Abstract. The vision of Home Environment is changing towards living interaction space populated of interconnected devices, services that encapsulate the functionality, and multiple interfaces through which the user can interact with these devices, in accordance with vision of ubiquitous computing. This paper presents a pervasive services platform for ubiquitous spaces based on distributed architecture P2P using JXTA technology, with an innovative approach, that favors the building of collaborative services from proactive entities, the peers. These ones are able to establish dynamic intercommunications synchronizing with others, form coalitions to cooperate with others for a common purpose, and are self-organized into groups.
