ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

No work is complete with due recognition being given to persons who made it possible.
My project is no exception. I would like to place on record, proIound gratitude Ior those who
have mattered the most in the successIul completion oI the project.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my Project Manger Mr. Senthil Nathan
SISO Bangalore and to my project guide Mr. Manjunath Doriaswamy, Lead Engineer SISO
Bangalore, and Vijay Balram Ganwani Ior their able guidance. Without their guidance and
invaluable time spent with me in this project this thesis would not have been completed
successIully.

I am grateIul to Asst Prof. B Sujatha Dept oI E&C MSRIT, the internal Project Guide,
Ior her constant encouragement, suggestions, comments and tips have been very helpIul.

I am grateIul to Dr. S. Sethu Selvi, ProI. and Head, Dept oI E&C MSRIT Ior her moral
support given at various stages.

I also wish to express my sincere thanks to our principal Dr. K Rajanikanth Ior his
inspiration and support required at various stages oI the project.

Last but not the least I would like to thank our staII members, all those who have helped
me in the completion oI the project.

ABSTRACT


All sorts oI devices - PCs, mobile phones, cameras, handheld computers, and so on are
increasingly connecting to networks, and they are using a multitude oI connectivity methods
to do so. This trend increases the need Ior selI-conIiguring networks that allow devices to
easily and automatically join and leave networks, and learn about other connected devices.
Home networks, automotive networks, and similar environments demand new technologies
that can automate device and service discovery and control, obviating the need to administer
these networks

We have built a smart home demonstrator that combines unmodiIied commercial products,
like small embedded devices with products that have modiIied soItware, into an integrated
network, using UPnP as the common language.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is the basis Ior easy access to devices and content in a home
network. The Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) architecture enables pervasive peer-to-peer
network connectivity oI PCs oI all Iorm Iactors, intelligent appliances, and wireless device .It
has standardized the way devices in a network can discover each other. This thesis gives brieI
description oI UPnP technology and implementation oI UPnP and UPnP control Point which
is used to control and discover embedded devices.
