Abstract
The ubiquitous Internet of Things is underpinned by the recent advancements in the wireless networking technology, which enabled connecting previously scattered devices into the global network. IoT engineers, however, are required to handle current limitations and find the right balance between data transferring range, throughput, and power consumption of wireless IoT devices. As a result, existing IoT systems, based on collecting data from a distributed network of edge devices, are limited by the amount of data they are able to transfer over the network. This means that some sort of data fusion mechanism has to be introduced, which would be responsible for filtering raw data before sending them further to a next node through the network. As a potential way of implementing such a mechanism, this paper proposes utilising Complex Event Processing and introduces a hierarchical distributed architecture for enabling data fusion at various levels.
