At its Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC), an annual event for hardware makers, Microsoft is scheduled to discuss a "Web Services for Devices API" (application program interface), or WSDAPI, described in the conference agenda as an implementation of a new devices profile for Web services.
