Abstract

Large-scale networks of embedded devices present a challenge in terms of performance management and other quality of service issues, such as security or transaction management. Current commercial off-the-shelf software designed for use in the Internet environment has already had to face the same challenges in a general-purpose computing environment. We provide an overview of existing enterprise architectures. We then propose an architecture for the embedded device domain that adapts existing enterprise technologies by separating functionality and services into a embedded device world and general-purpose computing world that communicate via device proxies. We also discuss its application to an architecture that uses the GPRS mobile phone network as a network layer.
