Abstract
In this work, we consider the presence of dumb nodes in the underlying physical networks of Sensor-Cloud infrastructure. The dumb nodes get isolated from the network and degrade the network performance. Consequently, a Cloud Service Provider (CSP) is unable to use Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) in an efficient manner, as the dumb sensor nodes cannot use as a virtual sensor. Thus, in this work, we propose a scheme, Connectivity Re-establishment in the Presence of Dumb Nodes in Sensor-Cloud Infrastructure (CoRDS), that facilitates the reestablishment of the connectivity between dumb nodes and the sink. Using the proposed scheme, CoRDS, the CSP is able to provide the services efficiently as per end-users requirements. In order to re-establish connectivity between the dumb nodes and the sink, we use a single leader multiple follower Stackelberg game. Additionally, theoretical characterization of CoRDS has been shown.
