Automated Constrained Datamodel Provisioning Procedure

Abstract:

According to an aspect, communications device (e.g., IoT device) is configured to allow attachment of one or more peripheral devices. The communications device detects attachment of a peripheral device and obtains a template description file for the peripheral device. The template description file includes one or more service descriptions corresponding to respective exposed peripheral services, where each service description includes one or more peripheral-specific operations. The communications device receives, from a network-based application, a query directed to the peripheral device, the query requesting one of the exposed peripheral services. The communications device executes the peripheral-specific operations from the service description corresponding to the requested one of the exposed peripheral services and responds to the network-based application with a result of the peripheral-specific operations.
