Abstract

Internet of Things is a networking platform where billions of every day devices communicate intelligently making every day communication highly informative. The IoT defines a world-wide cyber-physical system with a plethora of applications in the fields of demotics, e-health, goods monitoring and logistics, among others. The use of cross-layer communication schemes to provide adaptive solutions for the IoT is motivated by the high heterogeneity in the hardware capabilities and the communication requirements among things. In this article, a novel Delta Diagram synthesis for the IoT is proposed to accurately capture both the high heterogeneity of the IoT and the impact of the Internet as part of the network architecture. Furthermore, a novel modified Grey Wolf Optimizer framework is proposed to obtain optimal routing paths and the communication parameters among things, by exploiting the interrelations among different layer functionalities in the IoT. Moreover, a cross-layer communication protocol is utilized to implement and test this optimization framework in practical scenarios. The results show that the proposed solution can achieve a global communication optimum and outperforms existing layered solutions. The novel Delta-diagram is a preliminary step towards providing efficient and reliable end-to-end communication in the IoT which may be extended to other dimensions of IoT like security and hardware synthesis.
