Since a huge number of heterogeneous resources are brought in- to IoT, one of the main challenges is how to effi- ciently manage the increasing complexity of IoT in a scalable, flexNle, and autonomic way. Further- more, the emerging IoT applications will require collaborations among loosely coupled devices, which may reside in various locations of the Inter- net. In this paper, we propose a new IoT network management architecture based on cognitive net- work management technology and Service-Orien- ted Architecture to provide effective and efficient network management of loT.展开更多

By introducing the concept of resource space to describe wireless spectrum resource management in the field of CR technology, a data system of wireless resource management is formed that covers wireless spectrum resource space, resource grid and available resource atlas. Besides, the corresponding lamination distributional management structure and the resource management database are constructed. The resources description system and the management structure will become the theoretical concept foundation and reference of the CR spectrum resources management technology.展开更多

DPM controls a node＇s operating mode by dynamically toggling the on/off status of its units based on predictions of event occurrences. However, since each mode change induces some overhead in its own right, guaranteeing DPM＇s eificiency is no mean feat in environments exhibiting non-determinism and uncertainty with unknown statistics. Our solution suite in this paper, collectively referred to as cognitive power management （CPM）, is a principled attempt toward enabling DPM in statistically unknown settings and gives two different analytical guarantees. Our first design is based on learning automata and guarantees better-than-pure-chance DPM in the face of non-stationary event processes. Our second solution caters tor an even more general setting in which event occurrences may take on an adversarial character. In this case, we formulate the interaction of an individual mote with its environment in terms of a repeated zero-sum game in which the node relies on a no-external-regret procedure to learn its mini-max strategies in an online fashion. We conduct numerical experiments to measure the performance of our schemes in terms of network lifetime and event loss percentage.展开更多
