Application buffering of packets by fog computing node for deterministic network transport
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method comprises: storing, by a computing device in a non-deterministic data network, a plurality of data packets originated by a source device into a mass storage medium associated with the computing device; receiving, by the computing device, a data request originated by an access point device providing deterministic reachability to a deterministic device in a deterministic data network providing reachability to multiple deterministic devices, the request specifying one or more deterministic constraints associated with reaching the deterministic device; and supplying, by the computing device, a selected one of the data packets to the access point device for delivery of data stored therein to the deterministic device according to the one or more deterministic constraints.
