network management architecture toward universal communication
Ubiquity of networked devices is one of the first steps toward realization of universal communication services. However, not much attention has been paid to the management architecture of the mashed-up services provided across the network domains. Absence of the scalable cross-domain network management architecture restricts the availability and penetration of the service. In this paper, we propose Tambourine framework which defines a web service based a network management API. Tambourine allows applications to access to the management and control information of networked devices across the domains.
