Abstract
This paper describes MOD-G, a communication protocol that allows different nodes to interact over the network of an empathic space. MOD-G creates a paradigm for the communication within the Centralized Data Acquisition Unit [1] network located at the Center for Empathic and Human Computer Interaction (CEHCI) Laboratory – De La Salle University. The Empathic Communication Module (ECM) which is a middleware that runs at the Application layer of the TCP/IP protocol suite uses the MOD-G Protocol. The ECM runs as a service in the background of every node in the space and is responsible for the creation and the delivery of packets that is transported over the network. In effect, a unification of all data acquisition modules is formed allowing all the data to be accessible to all the modules of the empathic system.
