物聯網多元應用之拍賣式衝突解決方案

Abstract

物聯網(Internet of Things)將我們生活中數以萬計的裝置都連上網路。隨著物 聯網科技的進步,物聯網的應用也持續的成長,並且適時地提供我們服務,讓我 們的生活過得更輕鬆。然而,當這些不同應用同時存在在我們的身活環境時,這 些不同的應用將可能同時使用同一個控制器(Actuator)導致衝突。如何有效地解 決衝突是一項重要的問題,必須快速且無痕的將衝突化解,並且能夠符合使用者 的喜好。我們提出拍賣式的衝突解決方案來化解衝突,模擬的實驗結果證實我們 所提出的拍賣式解決方案是有效的且解決結果能夠達到滿足多數應用程式的喜 好。

Internet of Things(IoT) technology enables billions of devices to connect to the Internet, including wearable devices, home appliances, ambient devices and so on. IoT application developers constantly create new services and applications to control the actuators to make our lives easier. Since many applications may exist simul- taneously in a given environment, it is likely that some applications want to use the same actuator at the same time, which creates actuator conflicts. How to solve conflicts is important in IoT applications. The conflict resolution should be efficient and optimal among the users. We propose an auction-based mechanism to coordi- nate applications and resolve actuator conflicts. The simulation results show that our methods are efficient and can achieve good performances.
