Abstract:
For energy operations across domains, a method generates a native node and a foreign node that includes a foreign data structure that is defined with a foreign protocol and that represents information of a foreign device in a foreign namespace. The method links the native node and the foreign node in a native namespace and the foreign namespace by a translation function that automatically converts information between the foreign data structure and the proxy data structure using protocol specific structure converting functions. The method further establishes a first publish/subscription instance with message middleware for the foreign device as publisher of the first publish/subscription instance. The method translates a message from the foreign device using the communication stack.

Claim (Index 13):
An apparatus comprising:\n a non-transitory memory, communicatively coupled to a processor, the non-transitory memory storing code that performs: generating a native node comprising a proxy data structure that is defined with a native protocol and that represents information of a proxy device in a native namespace, and a foreign node comprising a foreign data structure that is defined with a foreign protocol and that represents information of a foreign device in a foreign namespace, wherein the proxy device communicates in a Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) and the foreign device communicates in a non-CIP protocol; linking the native node and the foreign node in the native namespace and the foreign namespace by a translation function that automatically converts information between the foreign data structure and the proxy data structure using protocol specific structure converting functions; establishing a first publish/subscription instance with message middleware for the foreign device as publisher of the first publish/subscription instance; receiving published data metadata and a published data template from the message middleware; configuring a communication stack comprising a transport layer, a networking layer, and message reception layer to translate messages from the foreign device; and translating a message from the foreign device using the communication stack.
