A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12003511B2) outlines a method for operating a system hosted on a mobile entity, focusing on establishing trust relationships and facilitating resource sharing between different systems. The method involves digital representatives of systems negotiating transactions, controllers seeking to establish trust with cooperating systems, and initiating resource usage based on the negotiated transactions. The resources exchanged can include data, communication network bandwidth, processing capacity, data storage, and functionality of the mobile entity hosting the cooperating system.

Furthermore, the patent details the process of seeking to establish trust relationships by obtaining and verifying identities or security credentials of cooperating systems. It also includes steps for verifying transaction tokens, detecting the presence of cooperating systems, and sending resource usage requests. The method emphasizes the importance of determining resource sharing requirements, performing discovery processes to find cooperating systems, and utilizing existing smart contracts for transaction negotiations. Additionally, the patent covers the role of controllers in facilitating resource exchanges and providing information about negotiated transactions between systems. This innovative method aims to streamline interactions between mobile entities and enhance resource utilization efficiency in networked environments.
