   abstract = {Recent research and standardization in the domain of the In-
ternet of Things aims at providing IPv6 andWeb services on
the most constrained devices. The constrained application
protocol (CoAP) allows the deployment of RESTful Web
services on limited devices by oering a protocol similar to
HTTP that uses UDP as transport layer instead of TCP.
This enables more ecient communication if non-reliable,
asynchronous or group communication is required. Exist-
ing and mature home and building automation technologies
like KNX, BACnet or ZigBee are based on non-IP commu-
nication and dene a complete custom protocol stack. State
of the art integration approaches usually oer a centralized
Web service interface based on oBIX, OPC UA or BAC-
net/WS based on SOAP or RESTful Web services. This pa-
per presents the concept of a gateway that allows the integra-
tion of building automation systems into constrained REST-
ful environments by an IPv6 per-device interface based on
oBIX using a novel constrained application protocol binding
with ecient XML interchange message encoding. This in-
tegration approach provides a service-oriented architecture
with uniform interfaces for control scenarios that span het-
erogeneous technologies. The evaluation results show the ef-
ciency of novel protocol bindings compared to state of the
art protocol bindings and message encodings. Performance
evaluation results prove that even interactive user control
scenarios can be based on these Web service interfaces.}
