ABSTRACT:
A micro-server adapted to be embedded into a piece of industrial machinery, an automobile, a consumer product, and the like, for publishing information, possibly in the form of web pages, about the device into which the micro-server is embedded or with which it is associated and/or for controlling a micro-server equipped device from a possibly remote client. The information may be published such that it is accessible using a standard web-browser. Other suitable protocols could also be used. The micro-server is capable of interfacing with a device to access information from the device, such as control or maintenance information. The micro-server can then organize and format that information compatible with a communication protocol in preparation for publishing the information. The micro-server conveniently abstracts from the first device the details of the communication protocol used to publish the information.
