Hi All, I made this diagram of what I think the architectural elements should be in the Reader control plane: +----------+ +----------+ | Single | | Multi- | | Reader | | Reader | | App | | App | +----------+ +----------+ +- - - - - - - - -|- - - - - - - |- - - - -+ | Basic | +- - - |- - - - -|- - - - - - + | Reader | | +----V-----+ | Smart | | Controller | | | Multi- | | Reader | | | | | Reader | | Controller | | | | |Controller| | | | | | +----------+ | | | | +- - - |- - - - -|- - - - - - + +- - -|- - - - - - - - -|- - - - - - - |- - - -+ | | | +----V--------------V----+ | | | | | Single | | | | | | Reader | | | | | | Controller | | | | | +------------------------+ | | | +- - - - - - - - - - - - -|- - - - - - - |-+ | +- - - - - - - |- - - - - - - |- - - - - - - + | | +------------V-----------+ | | | | | Low-Level | | | | | | RFID | | | | | | Funcitons | | Basic | |Smart | +------------------------+ | Reader | |Reader +- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -|- - - - - - - + +- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + As you can see, I think that we should separate the control plane into separate multi-reader and single reader control elements, to allow flexibility regarding the "intelligence" level of readers and the corresponding interface for controllers. If I get a chance, I will make a similar diagram for the data plane, where I also beleive that there shold be more than two architectural elements. Thoughts?
