Lightweight services for embedded systems
Nikola Milanović, Jan Richling, Miroslaw Malek · 2004
We propose creating service oriented-architecture for embedded systems. We introduce the concept of contracts for embedded systems, and propose architectural and design solutions for accessing embedded systems using lightweight services based on contracts. We define proxy, translator and full service architectures, that enable us to link with a variety of classes of embedded devices. By treating embedded systems as services we expect to make a concept of self-descriptive and reusable embedded systems more accessible to clients.
