A Composition Algorithm of Appliances for Flexible Integrated Service on Home Network Systems

In recent years, many fields of industry, which include the ECHONET, UPnP, DLNA and OSGi, evolved to create an interworking solution for ubiquitous home networking. Accordingly, a service provider, which is providing an integrated service in an infrastructure from outdoor, starts needing to composite devices on these solutions including legacy appliances since these devices have been formed a network as more complicated home environment by various industries. In this paper, we propose a composition algorithm of appliances using representation of home devices that could be applied to systems for integrated service on networked home environments. The proposed algorithm give results which is possible composition lists among devices. we believe that our system architecture will provide a methodology of compositing appliances for integrate service flexibly even if each of homes have different environment.
