Standards
These are the specifications, produced by specific technical working committees, which have been standardized. The standardization process includes obtaining three sample implementations of the Device Control Protocol (DCP) to pass the UPnP™ Certification Test Tool, circulating the specification for a mandatory Forum member review and comment period, and obtaining the approval of the Steering Committee to become a Standardized DCP. Standardized DCPs are available to the public.
Documents
These are the fundamental documents that anchor the UPnP™ architecture. Device architecture and template guidelines provide a blueprint for the Working Committees. When a Working Committee is finished with its device and services specifications, the checklist provides a thorough accounting of milestones required to propose a specification for standardization.
Sample Devices
These hypothetical devices provide a walk-through example for developers.
Specifications
These specifications are referenced in UPnP™ Device Architecture Version
1.0.
Software Development Kits
These kits provide building blocks to developers building UPnP™ devices and services.
