Hierarchical Policy Based Management Architecture to Support the Deployment and the Discovery of Services in Ubiquitous Networks
Résumé
The most important issue in ubiquitous networks is to provide an efficient framework where services can be defined, managed and usage controlled. This work proposes a policy based management architecture as well as a new service discovery protocol called COPSSD which provides the necessary functional components to deploy and control ubiquitous services in the IT world.
