We are happy to announce the release of the newest DPWS stack at WS4D. uDPWS (Micro DPWS) is designed to run on deeply embedded devices with only tens of kB RAM and ROM and thus enables seamless connectivity of deeply embedded devices and resource richer devices. For more information visit the project website at http://code.google.com/p/udpws/.
The new beta 3 of the JMEDS v2.0 framework was released today. The release includes but is not limited to the following new features:
Follow this link to futher information about the JMEDS v2.0 framework.
A new version of the DPWS-Explorer v3 based on the JMEDS framework v2.0 beta 3 was released, too. It features the selection of communication interfaces used for searching devices and services.

Most of you may already know the emerging 6LoWPAN (IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks) protocols, pushing IPv6 based communication also down to wireless sensor networks. In the IETF, there are working groups like 6LoWAPP and CORE that are focusing design and development of application layer protocols on top of 6LoWPAN. One approach is of course usage of DPWS ;). There is an Internet-Draft at IETF 6LoWAPP and CORE, discussing this topic of DPWS for 6LoWPAN. So feel free to read the I-D and give feedback!
The First International Workshop on the Web of Things (WoT 2010) this year in Mannheim was held in conjunction with PerCom 2010. It was a great event with highly fruitful discussions about future smart cooperating objects, characterized by tremendous resource constraints. Nevertheless, the trend towards 6LoWPAN (see http://tools.ietf.org/wg/6lowpan/ and http://www.ipso-alliance.org/) is gaining in momentum. During WoT there were of course also nice presentation about DPWS and WS4D related stuff like the WS4D port for SunSpots. For a complete program overview visit the WoT 2010 website. Let’s hope for a WoT 2011 and many more papers about the cool stuff around DPWS!
There is a port of the WS4D JMEDS Stack for the SunSPOTs. For more information on the port visit http://www.scss.tcd.ie/~grobac.

The University of Rostock exhibits on the embedded world in Nürnberg (02.03. - 04.03.2010) and promotes WS4D technologies to overcome the problems of the heterogeneous hardware structure with advanced cross domain solutions. See the “Internet of Things” and make your first experiences with WS4D. We will present you:
We will demonstrate the power and simplicity of WS4D in the domain of Home Automation (Smart Objects, digitalStrom).
Miscellaneous contacts already have been established and hopefully more potentials partners from industry and for research will follow during the following days. Come and see the live demonstration of the WS4D capabilities and meet the team. Visit us at Hall 11, 11-128 with the exhibit “WS4D - Web Services for Devices - Cross domain technology for smart systems”.
The University of Rostock exhibits on the CeBIT in Hannover (02.03. - 06.03.2010) and promotes WS4D technologies to overcome the problems of the heterogeneous hardware structure with advanced cross domain solutions.

Again, we are participating in the preparation of the annual IEEE SOCNE workshop. The 5th International IEEE Workshop on Service Oriented Architectures in Converging Networked Environments (SOCNE’10) will take place in Perth (Australia) from April 20-23 2010. SOCNE encourages communication and exchange of ideas between industrial and academic researchers in the field of service-oriented architectures. Important knowledge about future emerging directions for middleware, network infrastructures, and self-organizing software/service architectures will be addressed. For the first time, the workshop will also consider tracks on cloud computing and embedded systems. SOCNE will be hosted in conjunction with the IEEE 24nd International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications (AINA-10).
You can find more information on SOCNE 2010 and past events at http://www.socne.org.

Today we received an email, which we would like to share with you.
We are pleased to announce that Devices Profile for Web Services (DPWS) Version 1.1 has been approved as an OASIS Standard. The submission of the approved standard can be found at [1].
Congratulations to the OASIS Web Services Discovery and Web Services Devices Profile (WS-DD) TC, and the community of implementers, developers and users who have brought the work successfully to culmination.
