An energy-efficient Long HopHigh Priority Algorithm for IoT resource management

In this modern era, the Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the hottest technologies which is growing day by day. There are many types of research still underway. Many aspects are yet to be improved for real-time applications. The main area focused in this work is the networking part of the IoT. Therefore there are chances for lots of problems during communication. One main problem is congestion. It may even break the network. So scheduling is done to avoid such situations. The proposed work deals with message scheduling in an IoT environment where the whole environment is divided into several subgroups and each group is headed with a master node called broker node which is responsible for sending the messages. Behind this broker node, a scheduling algorithm runs that decides which message should be sent first and when it should be sent. Many algorithms are existing such as SPTF, LH, FCFS, etc. To enhance the performance of the network a new algorithm named the Long Hop High Priority (LHHP) algorithm is proposed. In this algorithm, emergency messages are given high priority and long distances are taken into consideration, which improves the response time and turn-around time of the messages in an energy-efficient way.
