ABSTRACT:
A technique for commonly controlling device drivers includes the arranging of a DIA (Device Independent Access) hierarchy between an application hierarchy and a device driver hierarchy and applying a standardized rule of the DIA hierarchy to the application hierarchy and the device driver hierarchy, and allowing the application hierarchy and the device driver hierarchy to access the device driver hierarchy and the application hierarchy through the standardized rule of the DIA hierarchy, respectively.
