Zusammenfassung / Abstract

Recently, service integration of home networks into Internet, healthcare systems, and Smart Grids has become an important research area. In this direction, I have developed a programming model based on Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) to implement this integration process. This model is envisioned to work as an operating system called SOA-OS to manage the network of distributed embedded devices for a home, hospital, etc. It provides a reliable, user-friendly model to integrate these devices into other IP-based networks at a high level of interoperability and regardless of their capabilities

Basically, SOA-OS is based on a 4-layered architecture. It can solve many problems related to accessing resource-constrained devices from IP-based-networks, e.g., dynamic discovery of the devices and their services, authorization, security, time synchronization, and scheduling the online time of the devices.
