            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.
