N2 - We define a programming abstraction for mobile networks called the Timed Virtual Stationary Automata programming layer, consisting of real mobile clients, virtual timed I/O automata called virtual stationary automata (VSAs), and a communication service connecting VSAs and clients. The VSAs are located at prespecified regions that tile the plane, defining a static virtual infrastructure. We sketch an algorithm to emulate a timed VSA using the real mobile nodes that are currently residing in the VSA's region. We also discuss examples of applications, such as intruder detection and tracking, whose implementations benefit from the simplicity obtained through use of the VSA abstraction.
