2.3 ADRC key concepts
ADRC is based on some key concepts that provide both simplicity for users and flexibility for product
developers. These concepts are:
• The user only needs one app to on-board, control and monitor all their Things and this is the device browser app (DeB)
> Just as there are multiple web browsers for a user to choose from, it is envisaged that in the future there will be multiple device browser apps from different suppliers and the user will be able to choose their preferred DeB app
• A licensing model whereby only the IoT stack embedded in a Thing’s microchip is licensed and the rest of the ADRC solution is open source. The open source components are the:
> Device browser app (DeB)
> Resource Modelling Language (RML) that is used to describe a Thing and its functionality
> Resource Control Protocol (RCP) that is the protocol used to transfer RML files and commands
between the Thing, the IoTG and DeB
> ADRC server software for an Internet of Things Gateway (IoTG)
- Just as there are multiple Wi-Fi modems for a user to choose from, the IoTG will be provided by
multiple suppliers
Here are my thoughts:
Per active download per App for new registration. Based on above (bold), not all Apps need to be chosen since user can use only one App. On another hand, user may choose to download/use 2 or more Apps.
On monthly basis - per active download per device.
