The Brazil project is a
web-based infrastructure
that links people securely to information, computers and other devices
leveraging existing standards and protocols.
Our framework
enables stand alone systems to work together within the Web space. A strong
authentication architecture allows extranets to access intranets in an
open environment without compromising security. Our approach extends the
endpoints to new applications and smaller devices; yet at the same time
we can adapt legacy applications into this architecture. Corporations can
take advantage of web-based computing to dynamically control access to,
and management of, corporate information systems and other digital data
that represents for example: state in physical space, door status, room
temperatures, camera inputs, etc. Each of our initiatives explores the
possibilities expressed by this infrastructure.

The core component of the Brazil project is the
Brazil web application framework.
It began as an extremely small footprint http stack, originally
designed to provide a URL based interface to smartcards, so the
smartcards could be accessed more easily from an ordinary web browser.
Along the way it grew to provide a more flexible architecture for
adding URL based interfaces to arbitrary applications and devices.
