Hosting Virtual IoT Resources on Edge-Hosts with Blockchain

摘要

Current IoT systems tend to be cloud-centric which in turn introduces network latency and constrained interaction with sensors and actuators. This paper presents the idea of using restful micro-services called Virtual Resources. A Virtual Resource is a software-defined IoT management construct that enables multi-tenancy support and load distribution onto edge hosts. The paper presents a performance analysis of our Golang implementation of Virtual Resources in various settings.
