Abstract
A control device by which a priority for service is assigned based on quality of service (QoS) for each control point residing on a network and services are provided according to the assigned priority. The control device includes communication S/W module which receives control messages transmitted from the control points or transmits reply messages to the control points, a priority management module which determines the priority for service based on a QoS level for each control point, a UPnP S/W module which analyzes the control messages received from the communication S/W module and controls service operations corresponding to the analyzed control messages, and a service S/W module which performs the service operations under the control of the UPnP S/W module. Consistent with the present invention, the priority for service is assigned according to the QoS for the control point and the services are provided according to the assigned priority.
