Terraswarm Accessors

Accessors, described in the paper, A Vision of Swarmlets are actors that provide access to a (typically remote) service, sensor, or actuator. An accessor is instantiated by an accessor host or swarmlet host, which is a program or browser script. The host uses the accessor as if it were a local source and/or sink for data and/or commands. An accessor host is to the Internet of Things what a browser is to the Internet. It renders a remote service by locally executing a proxy for that service.
