Abstract
Network in a Box (NIB) assimilates hardware and software composition in a portable form where the network functions are expanded in an ad-hoc manner. The explicit environmental features do not provide sufficient information instantly. Therefore, to cope up with the explicit environmental conditions and to maximize the data aggregation process, scalable aggregation plan (SAP) for NIB is introduced in this article. SAP focuses in maximizing data accumulation from the available resources through recurrent linear and discrete analysis. The liveliness of the information and its availability are the prime constraints that determine the efficiency of SAP. For this purpose, selection of precise aggregation is mandatory irrespective of the levels in aggregation and multi-hop data transmission. The reliability of the aggregation from the available resources is assessed using time-dependent slot and interval allocation. The performance of the proposed SAP is validated using appropriate experiments, and the performance metrics such as aggregation delay, backlog error, transmission time, and aggregation rate are used for evaluation.
