Basic Resources Mapping:
URL -> IP Address，Barcode, RFID, etc.
The Requirements for Basic
Resources in the IOT
Efficiency
There are trillions of things in the IOT, interconnection is needed
Because most of things maybe frequently move around the world,
the relationship between names and addresses of these things
should be accordingly changed
The information about the mapping list has to be frequently
updated, and the QPS (Queries Per Second) will far exceed than
DNS
Compatibility
There are multiple code standards for things related with the IOT
such as EPC, uCode and any other (self-designed) codes
These heterogeneous code standards can cause the conflict of the
name service for the IOT
Security
Reliability
 Integrity
Confidentiality
Trusted
Basic Resources Service Platform
The basic resource service is similar with domain name system.
Any user can use a symbol (like URL, barcode or RFID) to visit
related IOT service
