Dynamic Binding Framework for Open Device Services

We present a SOA-based, dynamic, extensible service binding framework that exports public services built on embedded systems' low-level capabilities. We have also implemented our framework on a small device equipped on a robot and demonstrated various interactions between our system and other services or devices. Our work is different from the SOA (Service Oriented Architecture)-based products many software vendors have announced in that our framework develops low-level device capabilities into public services that are readily integrated into existing high-level services. Recent proliferation of embedded systems made the motivation of this work.
