Abstract:
Example embodiments of the present invention disclose a device management method, middleware, computer-program products, system, and apparatuses. The method includes: a resource access request is received by using a resource access interface, where the resource access request includes: a URI that is used to indicate a storage location of an accessed management object MO data resource; according to pre-created mapping between the resource access request of the MO data resource and a DM command, the resource access request of the MO data resource is converted into corresponding DM command, and according to pre-created mapping between the MO data resource and MO information, the MO information corresponding to accessed MO data is determined; and the DM command is sent to a target device corresponding to the URI to manage the MO information corresponding to the accessed MO data, so that the M2M applications may access different M2M platforms to manage devices, implementing end-to-end device management and related service applications.
Abstract:
An encrypted communication method relating to communication technologies includes allocating a same encryption key for a first application and a terminal that is only bound to the first application. The method also includes transparently transmitting information communicated between the terminal and the first application when determining that the terminal communicates with the first application by using the same encryption key.
Abstract:
A method for processing deferred messages includes a storing process, a notification process and a retrieving process. In the storing process, when a user presets and requires to store the deferred message, the system stores the deferred message to be sent to the user; in the notification process, when a user gets online, an IM server at the client side detects the system has stored the deferred message for the user and if the user has subscribed the deferred message notification, the system sends the deferred message notification to the client according to the setting of the system or of the user; in the retrieving process, when the client receives the deferred message notification and requests to acquire the deferred message, its IM server sends the deferred message content to the client. The present invention improves the method for processing deferred messages in the SIP/SIMPLE IM service system.
Abstract:
A method for remotely managing a sensor network topology includes: receiving a device management DM command sent by a device management server, where the DM command acts on a preconstructed management object MO node and the MO node includes a node configured to discover a sensor network topology, a node configured to describe a sensor network topology, or a node configured to modify a sensor network topology; and managing a sensor network according to the DM command, where the management includes discovering the sensor network topology, describing the sensor network topology, or modifying the sensor network topology. By adopting the present invention, remote topology management of a sensor network successive to an M2M gateway can be implemented and the complexity for implementing the management is reduced.
Abstract:
A method for performing an operation on a device resource includes: receiving a first request, which is requests an operation on a device resource, where a destination address of the first request is a mapped address of the device resource on a management apparatus; determining, that the device resource is created on a device corresponding to the device resource; generating a second request for performing an operation on the device resource on the device; and transmitting the second request to the device. A management apparatus for performing an operation on a device resource is also provided. By using the present invention, the complexity for the network application to perform an operation on the device resource can be reduced, and the convenience for the network application to perform an operation on the device resource can be improved. Therefore, extensive application of M2M can further be promoted.

Abstract:
A network system includes a device management (DM) server and a Machine to Machine (M2M) gateway coupled to the DM server and to a plurality of sensor devices in a sensor network. The DM server is configured to send a DM command. The M2M gateway is configured to: after receiving the DM command, access a topology tree that includes first and second management object (MO) nodes, wherein the first MO node includes an identification and a type of the sensor network and the second MO node describes a characteristic of each of the plurality of sensor devices and a connection relationship of the plurality of sensor devices; according to address information within the DM command, locate at least one of the first and second MO nodes; retrieve information from the located at least one of the first and second MO nodes; and send the retrieved information to the DM server.
Abstract:
A group communication method is provided, including: receiving, from a network application, a group access request that requests access to a group, where the group access request includes a group identifier of the group; obtaining group member information of all group members in the group according to the group identifier; according to the group member information, determining members of a first group that are connected to a service function entity through a same gateway in the group; and sending, to the gateway, a first group member access request that requests access to the members of the first group. In addition, a service function entity for group communication and a gateway for group communication are provided. The present invention is capable of reducing signaling overhead during group communication and thereby improving group communication efficiency.
