IoT Component Design and Implementation using Discrete Event Specification Simulations
Résumé
The Internet of Things (IoT) approach enables rapid innovation in the area of internet connected devices and associated cloud services. An IoT node can be defined as a flexible platform for interacting with real world objects and making data about those objects accessible through the internet. Communication between nodes is discrete event-oriented and the simulation process play an important role in defining assembly of nodes. In this paper, we propose the definition of a modeling and simulation scheme based on a discrete-event formalism in order to specify at the very early phase of the design of an ambient system: (i) the behavior of the components involved in the ambient system to be implemented; (ii) the possibility to define a set of strategies which can be implemented in the execution machine. The DEVSimPy environment is then used to implement the example of a switchable on/off lamp.
