Semantics support and management in M2M systems
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving via a network, by a first computing device, a request from a client device to create a first semantics related resource of a first plurality of semantics related resources on the first computing device, wherein the request comprises a request for a definition associated with a semantics description, wherein the first computing device is a first semantics node;
determining that the request for the definition associated with the semantics description resides on a second computing device, wherein the second computing device is a second semantics node and the second computing device comprises a second plurality of semantics related resources; and
responsive to the determining that the request for the definition associated with the semantics description resides on a second computing device, linking the semantics description to the definitions on the second semantics node, wherein the created linking is used for subsequent requests for semantics.

Abstract
Semantics nodes provide semantics support in machine-to-machine (M2M) systems. In an embodiment, a semantics node may manage semantics related resources capable of being discovered, retrieved, or validated by other devices. In another embodiment, the semantics node may be discovered by other nodes, and semantics related resources may be discovered with subscription mechanisms.

9. A first semantics node comprising:
-
a processor; a transmit/receive element for communicating with a network; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the semantic node to effectuate operations comprising; receiving, from a client device via the network, a request to create a first semantics related resource of a first plurality of semantics related resources, wherein the request comprises a request for a definition associated with a semantics description; determining that the request for the definition associated with the semantics description resides on a second semantics node, wherein the second semantics node comprises a second plurality of semantics related resources; and responsive to the determining that the request for the definition associated with the semantics description resides on a second semantics node, linking the semantics description to the definitions on the second semantics node, wherein the created linking is used for subsequent requests for semantics. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer readable storage medium comprising computer executable instructions that when executed by a processor of a first computing device cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving, from a client device via a network, a request from a client device to create a first semantics related resource of a first plurality of semantics related resources on the first computing device, wherein the request comprises a request for a definition associated with a semantics description, wherein the first computing device is a first semantics node; determining that the request for the definition associated with the semantics description resides on a second computing device, wherein the second computing device is a second semantics node and the second computing device comprises a second plurality of semantics related resources; and responsive to the determining that the request for the definition associated with the semantics description resides on a second computing device, linking the semantics description to the definitions on the second semantics node, wherein the created linking is used for subsequent requests for semantics. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
