ENHANCED OPERATIONS BETWEEN SERVICE LAYER AND MANAGEMENT LAYER IN AN M2M SYSTEM BY ALLOWING THE EXECUTION OF A PLURALITY OF COMMANDS ON A PLURALITY OF DEVICES

摘要

The present application is directed to a computer-implemented device and method for performing group-on-group operations over the M2M interface. The device and method includes the step of receiving a request to initiate the group-on-group operation from a device owner including commands of a group resource defined in a uniform resource indicator. The device and method includes the step of processing the request and also a step for sending a group management request API to a management server to execute the commands on the devices. Further, there is a step of receiving a response from the management server indicating execution status of the commands by the device. The application also is directed to a computer- implemented method for establishing group-on-group operation over the M2M interface.
