In one embodiment, a method comprises an Internet Protocol (IP) router receiving sensor data from at least one of a second IP router or an attached host sensor node, the sensor data distinct from link data of a network link; the IP router generating sensor information based on storing the sensor data with metadata describing reception of the sensor data by the IP router in a routing information base; and the IP router executing a routing operation based on the sensor information stored in the routing information base.

In one embodiment, a sensor device in a network detects an alarm condition. The sensor device generates an alarm message based on the detected alarm condition and waits for a delay whose length is inversely proportional to a distance between the sensor device and a downstream destination device for which the alarm message is destined. During the delay, the sensor device receives one or more additional alarm messages from one or more upstream sensor devices. The sensor device coalesces the one or more received alarm messages from the one or more upstream sensor devices with the alarm message generated at the sensor device, to form a coalesced alarm message, and transmits the coalesced alarm message downstream towards the downstream destination device, after expiration of the delay.

In one embodiment, one or more routing trees may be determined based on corresponding root nodes to reach a particular receiving node in a computer network. A delay value may be calculated at each node of the routing tree, the delay value inversely proportional to a distance between each respective node and the root node of the tree. Upon detecting a trigger at a particular node of the tree to transmit a stormed message to the particular receiving node (e.g., an alarm), the particular node may initiate a timer to count down the delay value in order to receive any upstream node stormed messages prior to expiration of the timer. The particular node may then coalesce the upstream node stormed messages with the stormed message of the particular node, and may transmit the coalesced stormed message downstream along the tree toward the particular receiving node upon expiration of the timer.

In one embodiment, a clustering device may determine one or more sensor clusters having a plurality of sensor devices that report similar data of a same data type in a sensor network. Accordingly, the clustering device may select a subset of the sensor devices in each respective sensor cluster as one or more representative devices, such that a sensor sink obtains data from only the representative devices.

In one embodiment, a node in a computer network may receive data of a particular type at a first frequency (e.g., a sensor in a sensor network), and may correspondingly determine whether there is at least one interested subscriber for the data of the particular type, where the interested subscriber desires the data at a second frequency. If there is an interested subscriber, buffered data publishing may be dynamically activated at the node in response to a ratio between the second and first frequencies being less than a configured threshold. In particular, buffered data publishing comprises buffering the received data and transmitting a latest received data to the interested subscriber at the second frequency.

An IPv4 host is able to maintain connectivity within an access network while moving among access points of the access network, based on receiving a unique assigned IPv4 address from a clusterhead of the access network. Any DHCP request by the IPv4 host is sent via the connecting access point to the clusterhead. The clusterhead, providing connectivity for hosts in the access network to a wide area network based on respective entries, assigns the IPv4 address to the IPv4 host, based on storing an entry including the IPv4 address and an IP-based identifier of the connecting access point, and sends a DHCP response to the IPv4 host via the connecting access point. A second DHCP request from the IPv4 host to a second access point causes the clusterhead to update the entry with the second access point identifier, enabling the IPv4 host to continue use of the assigned IPv4 address.
摘要:
A method and system for remotely configuring and/or provisioning a device that is nonoperational is provided. The device may be, in general, any electronic device that includes at least one setting (“device setting”) that can be programmatically or otherwise established or adjusted to configure and/or provision the device for its operation. The method includes detecting, via a radio frequency identification (“RFID”) tag, a state of a device that is communicatively coupled to the RFID tag; and providing the device setting via the RFID tag when the state signifies that the device is nonoperational.
