We investigates the functions of UPnP protocol that would be used to provide easy and cheap access for home networking. We suggest that a proxy device may reduce the cost of establishing UPnP network if it serves as an interface between UPnP and X10 protocol. We also describe the design of UPnP proxy device and the service scenario.

This paper presents an architecture of UPnP Bridge that allows controlling Non-iP devices from UPnP control point, without modification to Non-IP device or UPnP control point implementations. UPnP devices must provide SSDP discovery, SOAP control and GENA event processes. To represent Non-IP devices to UPnP devices, UPnP Bridge provides these functionalities on behalf of Non-IP devices. We provides two method to interoperability between UPnP and Non-IP devices, Message Field Description, Non-UPnP Proxy devices. And solution to integrate heterogeneous networking standards(RS232C, CAN, IEEE1394, USB) is provided.

Because of a security problem and not enough IPv4 address space, the home network has been made up of private network, and it has been separated from Internet. This fact prevents people in Internet from controlling and monitoring home appliances. So, this paper designs and Implements the UPnP Proxy System which offers functions for users to control and monitor home appliances. When users are in the outside of the home network, they do not know which devices were connected in the home network because the advertisement messages of UPnP devices would not be delivered to the outside of the home network. Also, users cannot access devices directly, and their control messages are not delivered into the home network. So, this paper designs and implements the UPnP Proxy System to solve these problems. The merit of the system is that users can control and monitor home appliances in realtime using presentation web documents with the HTTP push technology.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a HNCP-UPnP bridge. HNCP networked devices targeted to white goods are allowed to be controlled and monitored by UPnP Control Point. Bridge provides automated creation of UPnP proxy device and message conversion. The developed system enables integration of heterogeneous home network.

Deploying advanced home networking technologies and modern home-networked devices in residential environments provides a playground for new home applications and services. Because home multimedia entertainment is among the most essential home applications, this paper presents an appealing home media content sharing scenario: home-networked devices can discover neighboring devices and share local media content, as well as enormous amounts of Internet media content in a convenient and networked manner. This ideal scenario differs from traditional usages that merely offer local media content and require tedious manual operations of connection setup and file transfer among various devices. To achieve this goal, this study proposes a proxy gateway architecture for home multimedia content distribution. The proposed architecture integrates several functional mechanisms, including UPnP-based device discovery, home gateway, Internet media provision, and in-home media content delivery. This design addresses several inherent limitations of device heterogeneity and network interoperability on home and public networks, and allows diverse home-networked devices to play media content in an identical and networked manner. Prototypical implementation of the proposed proxy gateway architecture develops a proof-of-concept software, integrating a BitTorrent peer-to-peer client, a UPnP protocol stack, and a UPnP AV media server, as well as media distribution and management components on the OSGi home gateway platform. Practical demonstration shows the proposed design and scenario realization, offering users an unlimited volume of media content for home multimedia entertainment.

For activating home network, the security service is positively necessary and especially the access control supports secure home network services and differentiated services. But, the existing security technology for home network seldom consider access control or has a architecture to be dependent on specific middleware. Therefore, in this paper we propose a scheme to support integrated access control in home network to use XACML, access control standard of next generation, to have compatability and extensibility and we design and implement XACML access control system based on this. we also had m access control experiment about various policy to connect developed XACML access control system with the UPnP proxy based on OSGi in order to verify compatability with existing home network system.
