An Interplatform Service-Oriented Middleware for the Smart Home

摘要: In domotic scenarios, where ubiquitous computing pervades housing, the capability to effectually discover, integrate and coordinate different devices with diverse implementation details, communication protocols, functionalities is a central aspect. Basing on layered architecture for smart embedded which builds paradigm of Service Oriented Computing, in this paper we focus pervasive layer requirements it has fulfill, so as realize high degree automation serve needs higher application levels architecture. We show how discovery framework can take care new independently their protocols through use proxies. Because development home network service applications, transmission modes are proposed. There more digital appliances compliance protocols. The proposed they typically unable interconnect each other. design implement middleware homes popular such UPnP OSGi collaborating Zigbee Bluetooth converge various oriented applications. Additionally, well-developed technology, majority been developed support these technologies, propose two base drivers protocol our platform. availability standardized type descriptions further assist towards automating tasks integration coordination intelligent algorithms. From technical point view, OSGi/UPnP standards. An experimental setup testing plugins ZigBee devices, along an evaluation performance proxy verify that solution viable effective one.
