According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, thing discovery and configuration for an Internet of Things (IoT) integrated developer environment (IDE) is shown and described. In particular, in one embodiment, a computer operates an IoT IDE that discovers real-world physical devices within a computer network that are available to participate with the IoT IDE. The IoT IDE may then determine a respective functionality of each of the real-world physical devices, and virtually represents the real-world physical devices as selectable options within the IoT IDE for an IoT application, where a respective virtual representation of each of the real-world physical devices is configured within the IoT IDE with the corresponding respective functionality of that real-world physical device. Simulating the IoT application within the IoT IDE then relays input and/or output (I/O) between the IoT IDE and a selected set of real-world physical devices according to their corresponding respective functionality.

In one embodiment, a method for reducing the network load of an event-triggered video system comprising transmitting a first 'play' indication by a controlling process over a data network, to an appropriately configured video encoding process, transmitting first video data by the encoding process in response to receiving the first 'play' indication, the first video data being transmitted over the data network through a communication channel established over the data network between the encoding process and a recording process and receiving the first video data by the recording process.

Negotiation of RSVP reservations prior to the setup of a call, rather than negotiating reservation parameters during the call. RSVP reservation parameters are negotiated prior to ringing a device, rather than after. In some embodiments, this is achieved by including information in the initial call signaling elements. This added information allows negotiation with each device in the proposed data path to determine, prior to ringing the terminating device in the data path, whether each of the devices can support the proposed data link.
