More Information
Summary:An interoperability assessment between two or more devices can be based on the devices' specifications and on empirical evidence of interoperability. Comparisons between the devices' capabilities can provide an initial assessment of interoperability, which can be further supported, or contradicted, by empirical evidence. Interoperability determinations can leverage existing data collection, such as error reporting and user identities to obtain estimates of empirical usage of devices, and to provide for a level of automation for requesting users. Interoperability determinations can also be offered, with identity protection limitations, for users other than the requesting user to facilitate gift-giving or agent purchasing.
