9.2.1 Reliable service provision capabilities
The reliable service provision capabilities extend the service provision capabilities of the IoT basic
capabilities specified in [ITU-T Y.4401], in order to support reliable service provisioning to the IoT
applications.
The reliable service provision capabilities include the reliable service prioritization capability, the
reliable service composition capability, the reliable mobility service capability, the reliable
autonomic service capability and the reliable naming and addressing capability.
The reliable service prioritization capability enables the reliable service platform and the reliable
IoT service controller to guarantee services priorities, in order to provide reliable differentiated
services to the IoT applications [C-1-1].
The reliable service composition capability enables the reliable service platform and the reliable
service manager to guarantee correct service creation or service customization based on the
requirements of the IoT applications [C-1-2].
The reliable mobility service capability enables the reliable service platform and the reliable service
manager to guarantee correct remote service access, remote user authentication and remote service
execution based on the IoT application requirements [C-1-3].
The reliable autonomic service capability enables the reliable service platform, the reliable service
manager and the reliable IoT service controller to guarantee automatic capturing, transferring and
analyzing data of things and automatic provision of services in correct ways based on predefined
rules [C-1-4].
The reliable naming and addressing capability enables the reliable service manager, the reliable
network manager and the reliable device manager to guarantee creating, updating, deleting,
querying names and addresses of users, devices and things in correct ways based on predefined
rules [C-1-5].
In addition to the above capabilities, the service provision acknowledgement capability numbered
as C-1-12 in [ITU-T Y.4401] is also part of reliable service provision capabilities.
9.2.2 Reliable communication capabilities
The reliable communication capabilities extend the communication capabilities of the IoT basic
capabilities specified in [ITU-T Y.4401], in order to support reliable communication for the IoT
applications.
The reliable communication capabilities include the reliable event-based communication capability,
the reliable periodic communication capability and the reliable quality of service enabling
communication capability.
The reliable event-based communication capability enables the reliable service platform, the
reliable end-user devices and the reliable IoT gateways to guarantee correct ways of initiating
communication based on predefined events and rules [C-2-1].
The reliable periodic communication capability enables the reliable service platform, the reliable
end-user devices and the reliable IoT gateways to guarantee correct ways of periodically initiating
communication based on predefined rules [C-2-2].
The reliable quality of service enabling communication capability enables the reliable network
controller, the reliable end-user devices and the reliable IoT gateways to guarantee the QoS required
for the delivery and processing of data (e.g., time-sensible data) in correct ways [C-2-3].
In addition to the above capabilities, the transport acknowledgement capability numbered as C-2-15
in [ITU-T Y.4401] is also part of reliable communication capabilities.
