A local service discovery scope that provides only local, in process service discovery. This implementation is mostly here as a reference for implementors of truly distributed implmentations. However, it is not entirely useless as it is useful for unit testing code that relies on the SLP apis and you need a light weight, process based discovery without all the hassle of the distributed implementations. Also, too, in process, local discovery is still useful even in production.
