Microsoft is leading a group of vendors proposing a specification intended to extend Web services to devices. An official at rival Sun Microsystems, however, blasted Microsoft for what Sun believes is another attempt to foist a Web services standard on the rest of the industry. Along with BEA Systems, Canon, and Intel, Microsoft on Tuesday is proposing WS-Discovery, which purports to bring the benefits of Web services to devices by enabling discovery of services, such as a laptop finding a local printer. WS-Discovery, which is being unveiled at the Intel Developer Forum event in San Francisco, describes a way for devices to find and connect to Web services in a simple, lightweight way, according to Microsoft.

Installing and configuring network-connected devices is not always a simple task. However, by extending the benefits of Web services to a rich and diverse set of devices, Microsoft and industry leaders are reducing the complexity of device-based integration. The Web services architecture offers a standardized mechanism for devices to send and receive information over a network without needing to know what operating system or application software is on the other side.

Digital devices are moving from the domain of the tech-savvy to the hands, purses and pockets, homes, and cars of mainstream consumers and knowledge workers. From cellular phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs) to gaming devices and wireless digital jukeboxes, these digital devices represent a key opportunity for hardware and software vendors. Although each device may provide access to information, the lack of high-fidelity connections among these devices limits the scenarios that the device and software manufacturers can bring to life.
