The increasing of device interoperability creates a new way to design smart houses and to support enhanced living environments having as main aim the increasing of quality of life. In this context more supporting platforms for smart houses were developed, some of them using Cloud systems for remote supervision and control. An important aspect, which is an open issue for both industry and academia,...
The vision of the Internet of Things enabled the development of a wide spectrum of services, applications and ecosystems, deemed infeasible not long ago. However, lack of standardization poses a number of questions still requiring proper addressing. Due to the need of supporting large number of users and significant data processing throughput, Internet of Things requires a specific approach towards...
This paper deals with distributed simulations and the communication protocols used to reach interoperability between simulation applications. High-Level Architecture is one of the used protocols to interconnect different types of simulators. Application called RTI is responsible for manage communication between simulators. This paper describes how to connect distributed simulations using the HLA architecture...
The management of the configuration of network devices is a complex process, due to both the number of devices and parameters to take into consideration, and most importantly to the widely varying ways in which such parameters can be queried and modified on each device. Each equipment vendor provides its own command-line interface or management protocol where parameters are structured in a different...
The evolution of microchips and embedded technologies and those related to the mobile world has led to the growth and proliferation of devices and systems for electronic payment used by end users to buy products or services. Over the last few years there has been a tendency to use these devices and systems to provide users a way to benefit of services that are accessories to the payment (e.g. Value...
Cloud Computing is a new computing paradigm where a large amount of computing capacity is offered on demand and only paying for what you use. Several Infrastructure Providers have adopted this approach offering resources which are easily managed by means of web-based APIs. However, if a user wants to use different providers, the resource management becomes tedious because providers define different...
Simulation has become an important evaluation method in the area of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) research due to the scalability limitations of evaluation test beds such as Planet Lab or G-Lab. Current simulators provide various abstraction levels for different underlay models, such that applications can be evaluated at different granularity. However, existing simulators suffer from a lack of interoperability...
As the power system evolves into a smarter and more flexible state, so must the communication technologies that support it. A key requirement for facilitating the distributed production of future grids is that communication and information are standardized to ensure interoperability. The IEC 61850 standard, which was originally aimed at substation automation, has been expanded to cover the monitoring...
Distributed virtual environments for training simulations can potentially improve team work quality besides introducing a safe environment to investigate human behavior in abnormal situations. However, the creation of such simulations is complex and expensive. Simulation reuse by means of interoperability, integrability and composability help saving money and development time. However, this is one...
This prototype demonstrated that the migration of collections between digital libraries and preservation data archives is now possible using automated batch load for both data and metadata. We used this capability to enable collection interoperability between the H.W. Odum Institute for Research in Social Science (Odum) data archive and the integrated rule oriented data system (iRODS) extension of...
Claim based identity management denotes an open identity model which uses the notion of claims to describe identity attributes. A claim is an identity attribute named with an abstract identifier (e.g. a URI), which applications and services can use to specify the attributes they need. Open and extensible formats for the exchange of identity attributes ensure interoperability among different identity...
The data in e-commerce holds the characteristics of distribution, heterogeneousness, sparseness, high dimension and mass. So data mining system in e-commerce should be able to deal with the data in the different environments. As a novel distributing computing technique SOAP is designed for increasing interoperability within the wide range of programs and environments. This paper provides insights...
The main goal of IEC 61850 standard is interoperability, i.e. the ability for intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) from one or several vendor to exchange information and use the information for their own functions. If IEC 61850 client can't acquire IEC 61850 data model of IEC 61850 server, the following real-time data communication will become impossible. Based on the research and analysis of substation...
Many issues need to be resolved before applying biometrics technology to the national network. Most importantly, it should be implemented with a standard interface so that interoperability can be guaranteed. Based on this requirement, infrastructure with a well-established model should be developed. The model is proposed by arranging models suitable for use in the national infrastructure establishment...
IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is an architectural framework for delivering Internet protocol multimedia to mobile users. The functionality of the system is specified and standardised to allow interoperability between equipment from different vendors. We study how to build the system models for model-based testing of an IMS configuration in a way which provides easy means of linking a requirement,...
