  5. NASUF DiSUS Service SeCEn Service Ontologies SeCEn Manager Implicit Functionality Service SISM Manager DistrES Service Findings So Far • Network Appliance Service Utilisation Framework (NASUF) • Distributed Semantic Unstructured Services (DiSUS) • Distributed Emergent Semantics (DistrES) • Semantic Interoperability and Signature Matching (SISM) • Implicit Functionality

  6. Distributed Semantic Unstructured Services (DiSUS) • DiSUS contains distributed peers offering structured and unstructured services • It contains two types of peers - specialised peers and simple peers • Knowledge base and Inference Engine (Specialised Peer only) • Specialised peers expose their own services, which are semantically described in the peer’s local knowledge base • Messages are propagated throughout the peer network using XML, which contain semantic queries Fergus, P., Mingkhwan, A., Merabti, M., Hanneghan, M. B., “DiSUS: Mobile Ad Hoc Network Unstructured Services,” (PWC’03) Personal Wireless Communications, Venice, Italy, 23 – 25 September, 2003, pp. 484 – 491.

  8. Semantic Interoperability and Signature Matching (SISM) • Service Descriptions and Service Requests are described using OWL-S • Services are described based on their capabilities in terms of the Inputs, Outputs, Preconditions and Effects (IOPEs) • Services dynamically extend their interfaces when IOPE conflicts occur.

Service Divx S-Video Xvid Xvid S-Video Semantic Interoperability and Signature Matching (SISM) • Dynamically extending service interfaces • Over time the device changes it service interface to support of data formats • This is achieved by matching IOPEs in the service request with IOPEs in the service description and using Intermediary Services Fergus, P., Merabti, M., Hanneghan, M. B., Taleb-Bendiab, A., Mingkhwan A. “A Semantic Interoperability and Signature Matching Algorithm for Service-Enabled Networked Appliances,” submitted to (GlobeCom’04) IEEE Global Telecommunications Conference. 29th November – 3rd December , 2004, Texas, USA.

  10. Display Recipe Watch TV Program RF-Amplifier Teletext DVD Movie Video Audio Audio Implicit Functionality Functionality Utilisation • Service-Enabled Devices • Perform Dynamic Service Composition • This enables us to utilise all the services offered by devices • Devices are distributed throughout the P2P network • This allows us to create Implicit Functions – These can be thought of as virtual applications Mingkhwan, A., Fergus, P., Abuelma'atti, O., Merabti, M., Implicit Functionality: “Dynamic Services Composition for Home Networked Appliances”, (ICC’2004) IEEE International Conference on Communications. 20th – 24 June, 2004, Paris, France.

  11. Novel Aspects of Work • Using P2P technologies we can publish and dynamically discover structured and unstructured services without having to know the interfaces a priory • We can publish and dynamically discover and evolve semantic service descriptions devoid of any centralisation using general consensus. • We can expose the functions offered by complex devices (TV, DVD, HiFi) as individual services, which can be simultaneously discovered and used by other devices within the environment • We can discover services based on their capabilities and provide better matches than typical key-value matching techniques, which allows us to automatically compose services based on Peer collaborations

  12. Future Work • The design of the NASUF framework needs to be completed • The framework has to be implemented • Evaluation criteria has to be determined • I have to submit the transfer report
