Application: Sensor device allocation apparatus, sensor device allocation method, and sensor device allocation program (Patent ID: US20240146807A1)
The patent filed by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corp. describes a sensor device allocation apparatus for IoT services. The apparatus includes a scoring unit that ranks sensor devices based on evaluation functions derived from the devices' specifications. A scheduling unit then determines a control law for the ranked devices, assessing service satisfaction based on collected data. If the service is not satisfied, the evaluation function is corrected, and the ranking process is repeated.
The apparatus further involves clustering evaluation functions into groups corresponding to clusters, allowing for more efficient ranking of sensor devices. Additionally, the apparatus can connect to a service request source, score evaluation function groups, and notify the source of an order close to the service requirement. The method involves scoring evaluation functions, determining control laws, and modifying the evaluation function if the service is not satisfied. The patent also includes a computer-readable medium storing instructions for executing these operations.
