Anna is pregnant and she has known that there is a discussion group in SeguiTel about pregnancy and maternity. She decides to subscribe to this group in order to obtain information from other mothers and to chat to women about their experiences as firs time mothers. Anna connects to the pregnancy and maternity group and is pleasantly surprised. The system shows her all the P2P devices connected at this moment and she can see that she has access to a lot of shared information. There are diets, nursing courses, pregnancy fitness videos, ultrasound galleries, post-natal abdominal exercises… She glances at some files and stores those wich are of mos interest to her in her residential gateway. For example, she is interested in a special low-glucose recipe, because the doctor advised her to be careful with glucose. She also decides to share some documents with her peers about government grants that she had obtained thanks to a friend who works in the Ministry.

In the evening, she connects her PDA to the residential gateway to watch the new recipe video. That way, she can follow the video in the kitchen while she is cooking.

Sara, a middle aged woman with high blood pressure problems has recorded a series of appointments and reminders in her agenda.

The system reminds her that she has to measure her blood pressure every day, but the alarm is not set to ring until she arrives home in the evening, so she normally receives the notification on her TV. Apart from that, every 8 hours, the system warns her to take her medication. She must receive the alert no matter where she is, because she must not forget to take the medication. Therefore, she receives the reminder on her mobile phoe if she is out of her house,on the PC if she is working or on the TV if she is at home. The system can detect that Sara has more than one device active. Depending on how the alert is configured, the system will send reminders to one or several devices. Finally, the system warns her about her next appointment with the specialist. In the same way as with the medication, depending on where she is, she will receive the reminder on wichever device is online that precise moment.

The blood pressure measurements are stored in a file wich is sent weekly to Mrs. Henderson, Sara's nurse, for analysis. Mrs. Henderson notes down the comments that she considers important and contacts Sara if theres is something she needs to comment on. Once a month, this file is sent to Sara’s GP for a routine analysis. Dr. Brown notes down his comments and advises Sra accordingly on the appropiate treatment. Finally, the specialist, Dr. House, receives the file before Sara's visit, in order to be fully informed and updated on her medical story.

John is trying to chatting to his son Peter, but he is not able to use the services of the P2P network from his access devices (neither his smart phone nor his PDA). He phones Henry, the system administrator to sort out about the problem. Henry tells him not to worry and that he will solve the problem as quickly as possible. Henry then connects, through his browser utility, to the P2P network. He authenticates himself as administrator and performs a search  looking for peers whose ID matches that of John’s PDA. After a while, he verifies that the search has no results in spite of the fact that John had told him his PDA was on.

Henry then proceeds to open the groups oriented navigation panel of the browser. He notices that the browser is connected to the “psychologists” group, as this was the last one John browsed. On the screen peers belonging to this group who are active at that moment begin to appear. Each peer is represented as a node with the name of their corresponding doctor written underneath.

Henry decides to zoom out one level leaving the “psychologists” group and the peers connected at that moment to the “doctors” group begin to appear on the screen (as they are being discovered). This group contains all the peers included in the “psychologists” group plus the peers belonging to different subgroups (doctors in different specialities and in general medicine). Henry zooms out one more level and connects to the “assistants” group. So, the rest of SeguiTel personnel such as nurses, social workers, carers, etc. are displayed on the screen. Henry zooms out again and is connected to the general group “SeguiTel” and once again additional peers appear.

On the right hand side of the screen, there is always a list available of the subgroups belonging to the actual group. At this point, the list contains all the groups that are “children” of the “SeguiTel” group, so Henry can see the groups “assistants”, “telecared”, “families” and others. He clicks on the group “families” and then the “John Smith’s family” subgroup. A few seconds later, Peter's residential gateway and his laptop peer are discovered and represented on the screen, but there are no traces of devices belonging to John.

Henry clicks on the icon representing Peter's residential gateway and a menu is displayed with the available options. This menu shows the services offered by the residential gateway peer to the whole group and some additional options such as “Node Navigation mode”. Henry selects this option and the panel with peers is updated to show the nodes with wich the residential gateway has a direct connection.

The gateway is displayed in the centre of the screen and arrows show the connection with other nodes. Between them Henry can see Peter's laptop, some residential gateways and the Seguitel System Server. But there are no traces yet from any of John’s devices or his residential gateway (which should supply connectivity to peers in John’s local area network).

Henry knows John and Peter both live in the same building, so he decides to establish a video conference with Peter to ask for help with the problem. In order to so, Henry clicks on Peter’s laptop icon and selects the “video conference” service. The browser application searches and finds an installed plug-in to use and run this kind of service. The video conference is established through the P2P network and Henry asks Peter to go to his father’s home to check if the ADSL wire of the residential gateway is correctly connected. Indeed, this was the cause of the problem, so Peter correctly connects the wire, and few minutes later John's residential gateway appears on the screen of the browser (attached to Peter's residential gateway, as the node navigation mode is still activated).
