EasyConnect物聯網系統之介面、設定與管理實作

Abstract

近年來許多的物聯網裝置已被應用於金流、物流、人流，互動藝術設計等各方面。為了管理與連結這些IoT裝置，我們開發了EasyConnect物聯網裝置管理系統。在我們的方法中，一個的IoT裝置的特徵被稱為”feature”（例如溫度、振動、顯示等），而這些feature會由network application負責控制。如果每一個 featue可以被 network application獨立處理，那麼我們就能將每個feature的控制分別寫成一個軟體模組。如此一來，當需要開發新的應用時，network application就可以簡單的由這些軟體模組組成。基於feature的概念，軟件模組可以提供簡單而有效的機制來開發物聯網互動裝置的應用。

Many Internet of Things (IoT) technologies have been used in applications for money flow, logistics flow, people flow, interactive art design and so on. To manage these increasing disparate devices and connectivity options, we develop an IoT EasyConnect system to manage IoT devices. In our approach, an IoT device is characterized by its “features” (e.g., temperature, vibration, display, etc.) that are manipulated by the network applications. If a network application handles the individual device features independently, then we can write a software module for each device feature, and the network application can be simply constructed by including these brick-like device feature modules. Based on the concept of device feature, brick-like software modules can provide simple and efficient mechanism to develop IoT device applications and interactions.
