M2M CLUSTERING MANAGEMENT

摘要

Methods, systems, and apparatuses associated with the service layer may provide clustering management capabilities for sensor nodes in M2M/IoT SL platforms, via conventional clustering algorithm reselection and performance optimization, which may be based on service layer analytics. Clustering functionality may be adapted not only within the individual network model and optimization goals employed by each conventional clustering algorithm, but the conventional clustering algorithms themselves may be changed or reconfigured using service layer functionality. These re-configurations may be based on analytics indicating that performance of a sensor node is sub-optimal and may occur within a significantly larger time scale when compared to dynamic routing decisions on a per-message basis.
