Registration method and communication method for application dedicated node (ADN), and nodes

1. A registration method for an Application Dedicated Node (ADN), comprising:

creating, by a Common Service Entity of a Middle Node (MN-CSE), an application dedicated resource for an Application Entity of the ADN (ADN-AE), and announcing, by the MN-CSE, the application dedicated resource to a CSE of an Infrastructure Node (IN-CSE); and

creating, by the IN-CSE, an announcement resource corresponding to the application dedicated resource;

receiving, by the IN-CSE, a resource acquisition request from an Application Entity registered to the IN (IN-AE), wherein the resource acquisition request comprises an AE-Identity (AE-ID) of the ADN-AE;

determining, by the IN-CSE, the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to the ADN-AE which the IN-AE requests to operate;

establishing, by the IN-CSE, a connection with the MN-CSE;

establishing, by the MN-CSE, a connection with the ADN-AE through the application dedicated resource;

wherein determining, by the IN-CSE, the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to the ADN-AE which the IN-AE requests to operate comprises: determining, by the IN-CSE, the announcement resource according to the AE-ID; and determining, by the IN-CSE, the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the application dedicated resource in the announcement resource.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein creating, by the MN-CSE, the application dedicated resource for the ADN-AE comprises:

creating, by the MN-CSE, the application dedicated resource for the ADN-AE according to a request.

3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein creating, by the MN-CSE, the application dedicated resource for the ADN-AE according to the request comprises:

receiving, by the MN-CSE, a resource creation request from the ADN-AE, wherein the resource creation request comprises a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) or a CSE Identity (CSE-ID) of the IN-CSE; and

creating, by the MN-CSE, the application dedicated resource for the ADN-AE.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein creating, by the IN-CSE, the announcement resource corresponding to the application dedicated resource comprises:

creating, by the IN-CSE, the announcement resource for the ADN-AE according to a request.

5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein creating, by the IN-CSE, the announcement resource for the ADN-AE according to the request comprises:

receiving, by the IN-CSE, an announcement resource creation request from the MN-CSE, wherein the announcement resource creation request comprises a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the application dedicated resource; and

creating, by the IN-CSE, the announcement resource corresponding to the application dedicated resource.

6. A Machine-to-Machine/Machine-to-Man (M2M) communication system, comprising: a first node and a second node, wherein

the first node, comprising a hardware processor arranged to execute program modules comprising:

a first establishment module, arranged to create an application dedicated resource for an Application Entity of an Application Dedicated Node (ADN-AE); and

a first communication module, arranged to announce the application dedicated resource to a Common Service Entity of an Infrastructure Node (IN-CSE);

the second node, comprising a hardware processor arranged to execute program modules comprising:

a second communication module, arranged to receive a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of an application dedicated resource from a Common Service Entity of a Middle Node (MN-CSE); and

a second establishment module, arranged to create an announcement resource corresponding to the application dedicated resource;

a query module, arranged to determine the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to the ADN-AE which an AE registered to an Infrastructure Node (IN-AE) requests to be operated;

wherein the second communication module may be further arranged to establish a connection with the MN-CSE.

7. The system as claimed in claim 6 , wherein

the first communication module may be further arranged to receive a resource creation request from the ADN-AE, wherein the resource creation request comprises a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) or a CSE Identity (CSE-ID) of the IN-CSE.

8. The system as claimed in claim 6 , wherein

the first communication module may be further arranged to establish a connection with the ADN-AE through the application dedicated resource.

9. The system as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the second communication module is arranged to receive the URI of the application dedicated resource from the MN-CSE in the following manner of:

receiving an announcement resource creation request from the MN-CSE, wherein the announcement resource creation request comprises the URI of the application dedicated resource.

10. The system as claimed in claim 6 , wherein

the second communication module may be further arranged to receive a resource acquisition request from the IN-AE, wherein the resource acquisition request comprises an AE-Identity (AE-ID) of the ADN-AE; and

the query module may be further arranged to determine the announcement resource according to the AE-ID, and determine the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to the URI of the application dedicated resource in the announcement resource.

11. A non-transitory computer storage medium, in which a computer-executable instruction is stored, and a process being arranged to execute the following computer-executable instruction steps:

creating an application dedicated resource for an Application Entity of the ADN (ADN-AE), and announcing, by the MN-CSE, the application dedicated resource to a CSE of an Infrastructure Node (IN-CSE); and

creating an announcement resource corresponding to the application dedicated resource;

receiving a resource acquisition request from an Application Entity registered to the IN (IN-AE), wherein the resource acquisition request comprises an AE-Identity (AE-ID) of the ADN-AE;

determining the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to the ADN-AE which the IN-AE requests to operate;

establishing a connection with the MN-CSE;

establishing a connection with the ADN-AE through the application dedicated resource;

wherein determining the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to the ADN-AE which the IN-AE requests to operate comprises: determining the announcement resource according to the AE-ID; and determining the application dedicated resource corresponding to the announcement resource according to a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the application dedicated resource in the announcement resource.
