  abstract = {The structure of open nets, like the Internet, is highly dynamic,
              as the topology of component networks continuously evolves. In
              this context, node connectivity is a key aspect and a language for
              distributed network-aware mobile applications should provide
              explicit mechanisms to handle it. In this paper, we address the
              problem of expressing dynamic changes of node connectivity at
              linguistic level and, in particular, we focus on a slight
              extension of the language Klaim, that is targeted to this aim. The
              extension consists of the introduction of a new category of
              processes that, in addition to the standard process operations,
              can execute a few new coordination operations for establishing new
              connections, accepting connection requests and removing
              connections. Our extension puts forward a clean separation between
              the coordinator level and the user level and, hence, it is modular
              enough to be easily applicable also to other network-aware
              languages. We will also show that our approach can be used as a
              guide for actual distributed (i.e. without a single centralized
              server) implementations of mobile systems.},
