METHOD, DEVICE AND MEDIUM FOR SUBSCRIBING APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18273294 titled 'METHOD, DEVICE AND MEDIUM FOR SUBSCRIBING APPLICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method, device, and medium for subscribing applications, particularly in the context of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The method involves creating a subscribed-to resource associated with a monitored application entity and sending a subscription notification to a notified application entity when a resource attribute of the monitored application entity changes.

  • Explanation of the patent/innovation:

- Creating a subscribed-to resource linked to a monitored application entity based on an action resource. - Sending a subscription notification to a notified application entity when a resource attribute of the monitored application entity changes.

  • Potential applications of this technology:

- IoT device management platforms - Smart home automation systems - Industrial IoT monitoring solutions

  • Problems solved by this technology:

- Timely notification of attribute changes in IoT devices - Enhanced user experience through customizable notifications - Improved adherence to user operation practices

  • Benefits of this technology:

- Increased efficiency in managing IoT devices - Customizable notifications for users - Better alignment with user preferences and practices

  • Potential commercial applications of this technology:

- IoT device manufacturers - IoT service providers - Smart home automation companies

  • Possible prior art:

There may be existing methods for subscribing applications to IoT devices, but the specific approach outlined in this patent application appears to offer a unique combination of creating subscribed-to resources and sending subscription notifications based on attribute changes.

Questions:

1. How does this method improve user experience with IoT devices? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this subscription system across a wide range of IoT devices?


Original Abstract Submitted

A novel method, device and medium for subscribing applications. The method may be performed by a common service entity, and includes: creating a subscribed-to resource associated with a monitored application entity based at least in part on an action resource associated with the monitored application entity; and sending a subscription notification corresponding to the action resource to a notified application entity when a resource attribute of the monitored application entity changes. With this method, a subscription notification of an action resource associated with an Internet of Things (IoT) device can be sent to a notified application entity in time in response to an attribute change of resources of the IoT device, so that a user can decide, independently or by an IoT management platform, whether the relevant action resource continues to be valid or invalid, thereby more conforming to actual operation practices of the user and enhancing IoT experience.
