Description
Summary:The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) has steered in a new generation of connectivity and data-driven decision-making across diverse industrial sectors. As IoT deployments continue to expand, the need for robust and reliable data management systems at the network’s edge becomes increasingly critical, especially for time-sensitive IoT applications requiring real-time responses. This study delves into the emerging research area known as the Internet of Transactional Things (Io2T) at the edge architecture, where the integration of transactional ACID properties into IoT devices and objects promises to enhance data reliability and consistency in distributed, resource-constrained environments. This paper investigates the reliability issues regarding Io2T applications at the edge and tackles more specifically the service placement problem. A formalized problem is proposed that aims to minimize the global response time of the Io2T services in edge infrastructure. The concept of an allele is introduced to address service placement using a hybrid approach for ordering transactional components. Furthermore, a demonstration is featured using a smart transportation system as a proof-of-concept.
