Method and apparatus for bluetooth-based general service discovery

A system-on-chip device, comprising:

• a first processor module to execute a Bluetooth low energy (BLE) communication mode;
• a second processor module to execute a non-BLE communication mode;
• and
• a controller to communicate with the first and the second processor modules, the controller configured to communicate an attribute of the non-BLE communication mode through the first module, identify a corresponding device commensurate with the attribute through the second module and communicate the corresponding device to the first module.

A connectionless method for device service discovery, comprising:

• identifying, at a processor, an attribute of a connection-oriented platform associated with a device;
• communicating the identified attribute through a connectionless communication channel associated with the device;
• identifying a corresponding device commensurate with the identified attribute;
• and
• communicating the identified corresponding device to the connection-oriented platform.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage device having a set of instructions to cause a processor to perform a process comprising:

• identify an attribute of a connection-oriented platform associated with the device;
• communicate the identified attribute through a connectionless communication channel associated with the device;
• identify a corresponding device commensurate with the identified attribute;
• and communicate the identified corresponding device to the connection-oriented platform.
