  • Patent number: 9712624
    Abstract: Clusters of virtual network switches (VNS) and controllers are provided. The controller cluster is connected to the VNS cluster which is between first and second network domains. A request is received at a first end point in the first network domain to connect to a second end point in the second network domain. If the connection should be through a virtual network connecting the network domains, a virtual network connection is established as allowed by a controller of the controller cluster. The establishment includes initiating first outbound traffic from the first end point to a VNS of the VNS cluster and initiating second outbound traffic from the second end point to the VNS. The VNS places a payload from the first outbound traffic into a reply to the second outbound traffic.

  • Patent number: 9684708
    Abstract: In an approach for creating a machine-to-machine device model based on ontological relationship, one or more computer processors determine a plurality of characteristics of one or more machine-to-machine devices within a machine-to-machine communication environment. The one or more computer processors determine one or more ontological relationships between the one or more machine-to-machine devices and the plurality of characteristics of the one or more machine-to-machine devices. The one or more computer processors create a semantic device model, based, at least in part, on the one or more ontological relationships between the one or more machine-to-machine devices and the plurality of characteristics of the one or more machine-to-machine devices.

  • Patent number: 9680726
    Abstract: The disclosure is related to determining an association among Internet of Things (IoT) devices. A first IoT device receives an identifier of a second IoT device, obtains a schema of the second IoT device based on the identifier of the second IoT device, and determines whether or not there is an association between the first IoT device and the second IoT device based on a schema of the first IoT device and the schema of the second IoT device, where the schema of the first IoT device comprises schema elements and corresponding values of the first IoT device and the schema of the second IoT device comprises schema elements and corresponding values of the second IoT device.
