GENERAL MIDDLEWARE ADAPTOR AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: A general purpose middleware adaptation device and a method thereof are provided to modularize a common function in order to reduce the burden of development of adapters which mutually work between devices on middle wares which are different. CONSTITUTION: A message transforming unit (230) transforms a local message which is collected through a message collecting unit into a standard message in a device profile transforming table stored in a storing unit using mapping information for a device. The standard message is expressed as a standard device profile. A message transferring unit (240) transmits the standard message which is transformed from the message transforming unit to local middleware devices which are different through a standard protocol. [Reference numerals] (210) Storing unit; (221) Local protocol interface; (222) Local device manager; (230) Message transforming unit; (241) Standard protocol interface; (242) Adapter interface
