Statistical Dissemination Control in Large Machine-to-Machine Communication Networks

IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 14(4), 1897–1910.

By: S. Lin*, L. Gu* & K. Chen*

author keywords: Machine-to-machine communications; network topology; small-world networks; information dissemination; quality-of-service guarantees; statistical control; Internet of things; ad hoc networks
TL;DR: This work analyzes the connected M2M network in the machine swarm of geometric random graph topology, extending the concept of small-world network to form shortcuts among data aggregators as infrastructure-swarm two-tier heterogeneous network architecture, then leverage the statistical concept of network control instead of precise network optimization, to innovatively achieve QoS guarantees.
