Abstract EN
As machine-to-machine networks become larger and more pervasive, manual configuration and discovery of resources will become intractable.
It is in this context that we propose the RDL, a Resource Description Language that represents a uniform way of describing embedded resources, allowing them to be shared and enabling a new class of resource-aware applications.
The RDL can describe a wide range of resources, characterizing individual nodes or entire networks.
It can contribute to overcome performance issues in dense networks or mobility-driven problems in highly dynamic machine-to-machine topologies by providing the means for self-adaptability and manageability, as well as opportunistic resource sharing in context-aware embedded applications.
The main goal for the RDL is to define a reusable and extensible resource description specification, which can only be reached if the resources are described in a standardized format.
To illustrate the feasibility of our approach, we have also developed a Java implementation of the RDL framework, as well as a TinyOS implementation targeting resource constrained platforms.
Furthermore, we have developed Modulus, a modular middleware for the development of resource-aware distributed applications.
