Abstract
The management of internet of things (IoT) objects through a self-describing interoperability framework is described. In one example, a method for self-described object management includes communicating, by an internet of things (IoT) object, a request to register the IoT object, receiving, by the IoT object, an inquiry from an IoT management system, and communicating, by the IoT object, a self-describing declaration to the IoT management system. The self-describing declaration can include an interface parameter schema for the IoT object and an operating parameter schema for the IoT object, among other data structures. The method can also include establishing an interoperability framework between the IoT object and the IoT management system based on the interface parameter schema and the operating parameter schema. Based on self-describing declarations from various IoT objects, a number of different IoT objects can be easily recognized, integrated with, and managed by the IoT device management system.
