Abstract

So far remote access solutions for residential services require modifications to clients. In addition, remote access adds complexity to the client application. We propose here a solution that decouples remote access from the client itself with an entity that creates virtual instances of remote services in a local network. Thereby, clients will be able to discover the virtual instance and use it. Moreover, client applications do not need to distinguish between local and remote services hence reducing complexity.
