XMPP based UPNP device architecture for cloud computing in a network environment

摘要

An example method for Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) based Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) device architecture for cloud computing in a network environment is provided and includes mapping a first content according to UPnP device architecture protocols to at least one stanza according to Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP), generating data comprising the at least one stanza and a second content formatted according to UPnP device control protocols (DCPs), and transmitting the data in an Extensible Markup Language (XML) stream over an XMPP network from a first UPnP entity in a first UPnP network to a second UPnP entity in a second, remote UPnP network. In specific embodiments, the second content includes vendor specific information conveyed in appropriate device descriptions and service descriptions.

1. A method, comprising:
mapping, at a first Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) entity in a first UPnP network by a mapping module provisioned in the first UPnP entity, a first content formatted according to UPnP device architecture (UDA) protocols to at least one stanza formatted according to Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP); generating, by a data generator module provisioned in the first UPnP entity, data comprising the at least one XMPP stanza and a second content formatted according to UPnP device control protocols (DCPs), wherein the second content comprises device-specific information related to the first UPnP entity; and transmitting the data in an Extensible Markup Language (XML) stream over an XMPP network from the first UPnP entity to a second UPnP entity in a second, remote UPnP network.
