Generic reasoner distribution method

摘要

A method for improving distribution of resources for a reasoning system including a plurality of data sources that each generate raw data that is to be processed by shallow reasoners before being provided to other components of the reasoning system to generate high-level inferred conclusions, the method including the steps of discovering available data sources from the plurality of data sources by discovery of protocol modules executed by devices associated with each data source; collecting capability information from each protocol module for each associated device; sending the capability information to a predictor server; requesting a resource allocation plan from the predictor server; and receiving the resource allocations plan from the predictor server, the resource allocation plane identifying devices associated with the plurality of data sources for executing shallow reasoners, the devices selected based on a usage model and the capability information.
