Abstract

Methods and devices for device service discovery may include receiving a query for a device service including one or more protocol-specific services connected to or discoverable by a computer device. The methods and devices may include mapping the query to one or more protocol-specific adapters selected based on the protocol-specific services. In addition, the methods and devices may include identifying at least one device endpoint representing at least one device that supports the device service and generating a list of device endpoints and corresponding service properties for each device that supports the device service.
