Reliability and availability measures for Internet of Things consumer world perspectives
Thi Thi Zin, Pyke Tin, Hiromitsu Hama · 2016
The Internet of Things in which things or objects are connected becomes important in modern society. It also reflects to our Consumer World in which objects or things such as cell phones, consumer products, smart homes, cars, TVs etc. are in the World Wide connections. One of the most challenging problems is concerned with the defining and computing of reliability and availability measures since an object or thing or device quality of service failures can lead to dangerous situations for people as well as physical infrastructures In this paper, we propose a probability based concept for measuring the reliability and availability of the devices and things connected in the Internet of Things. We will investigate the proposed model from the perspectives of consumer world by using things link analysis. For evaluation, some simulation results are presented.
