An approach for managing the Internet of things’ resources to optimize the energy consumption using a nature-inspired optimization algorithm and Markov model

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a developed communication idea in which connectivity and intelligence are added to nearly every device in a real-world context. From a technological standpoint, IoT provides a computational and communications capability to an item to connect to the Internet. Resource management policies are integral to IoT systems to ensure service quality and prevent energy loss and resource fragmentation. The resource management architecture includes some parts that coherently control resources in a way that minimizes resource loss in addition to offsetting the application service quality limitations. To this aim, planning and scheduling components are critical in determining the condition of available resources and the best candidates for hosting a program module. We proposed a method to handle IoT's resources utilizing a nature-inspired optimization algorithm and a Markov model to solve these restrictions. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated to current IoT access management systems in this article. In comparison to earlier approaches, the results demonstrated the efficacy of the new approach in terms of execution time and energy consumption.
