Cloud Computing and Virtualization in Embadded Devices Space Using WCF

This paper shows the appliance of WCF Windows Communication Foundation technology for communication with embedded devices. It defines the demands an environment should fulfill in order to enable an efficient integration of embedded devices in a heterogeneous environment like the Web. In a service oriented environment, shown in this paper, WCF services represent the basis for a middleware level in interaction between clients and embedded devices. Concrete implementation, with LabJack embedded device, of the described solution is realized for the education of students in the Business school of professional studies Blace.
