Deployment of DeepTech AI Models in Engineering Solutions

Ponencia presentada en ICRAMAE-2k21, International Conference on Recent Advances in Mechanical and Automation Engineering, Vivekananda Global University, Jaipur, India, 29-30th November 2021[EN]Industrial Engineering is a branch of engineering that focuses on the design and operation of industrial processes. It involves the application of science to the construction of production systems. This field has undergone significant advancements over the last decades. In the last centuries, the emergence of different technologies has led to breakthroughs in engineering, making it possible to automate processes in industries. Steam, electricity, the internet, and now Artificial Intelligence technologies have all brought with them greater levels of automation to machinery, gradually decreasing human involvement in processes such as procurement, raw material handling, manufacturing and quality control

Energy-Efficient IoT Service Brokering with Quality of Service Support

The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming real, and recent studies highlight that the number of IoT devices will significantly grow in the next decade. Such massive IoT deployments are typically made available to applications as a service by means of IoT platforms, which are aware of the characteristics of the connected IoT devices⁻usually constrained in terms of computation, storage and energy capabilities⁻and dispatch application’s service requests to appropriate devices based on their capabilities. In this work, we develop an energy-aware allocation policy that aims at maximizing the lifetime of all the connected IoT devices, whilst guaranteeing that applications’ Quality of Service (QoS) requirements are met. To this aim, we formally define an IoT service allocation problem as a non-linear Generalized Assignment Problem (GAP). We then develop a time-efficient heuristic algorithm to solve the problem, which is shown to find near-optimal solutions by exploiting the availability of equivalent IoT services provided by multiple IoT devices, as expected especially in the case of massive IoT deployments
