Patent

CA 2683998

An apparatus comprises a memory device and a processor disposed in communication with the memory device. The processor is configured to conduct an inquiry to discover nearby devices and to determine whether a discovered nearby device provides an indication that it may include a middleware software, the middleware software configured for providing application and service discovery. When the discovered nearby device does not provide an indication that it may include the middleware software the processor disconnects communication session establishment with the discovered nearby device. When the discovered nearby device provides an indication that it may include the middleware software, the processor creates a wireless short-range communication connection to the discovered nearby device. The processor confirms whether the nearby device includes the middleware software by requesting corresponding information from the discovered nearby device via the wireless short-range communication connection and when the discovered nearby device includes the middleware software, the processor executes the middleware software to perform application and service discovery with the discovered nearby device.

Appareil qui comprend une mémoire et un processeur, qui est en communication avec la mémoire. Le processeur est configuré de façon à exécuter une requête visant à repérer les appareils à proximité et à déterminer si l'un de ces appareils indique qu'il pourrait contenir un intergiciel configuré pour repérer des applications et des services. Lorsque l'appareil à proximité ne donne aucune indication qu'il pourrait comprendre un intergiciel, le processeur met fin à la session de transmission avec l'appareil repéré à proximité. Lorsqu'un appareil repéré à proximité donne l'indication qu'il pourrait comprendre un intergiciel, le processeur établit une connexion sans fil de courte portée avec l'appareil repéré à proximité. Le processeur confirme que l'appareil à proximité comprend un intergiciel en demandant l'information correspondante à l'appareil repéré à proximité à l'aide de la connexion sans fil de courte portée. Si l'appareil à proximité comprend l'intergiciel, le processeur l'exécute pour repérer des applications et des services à l'aide de l'appareil repéré à proximité.
