Dynamic Web Services on a Home Service Platform

The home network is a pervasive environment by nature. Its openness to dynamic distributed and heterogeneous devices brings great challenges in home application design. We present here an open architecture for home service development. Distribution and heterogeneity are managed by service-oriented drivers leveraging the "service platform" concept. Our project provides an open source driver combining Web services and OSGi standards to compose home services. Performance test results illustrate the service-oriented design.
