ABSTRACT:
IN THIS WORK WE DISCUSS PROXY ARCHITECTURES WHICH INTERCONNECT IOT DOMAINS RUNNING COAP WITH THE REST OF INTERNET INCLUDING MICRO DATA CENTERS AND OTHER DOMAINS BUILDING SCALABLE HIERARCHICAL ARCHITECTURES. WE ASSUME THAT COAP DOMAIN IS TERMINATED BY AN IOT PROXY WITH CACHE, AND DESCRIBE AND EVALUATE THREE DESIGN OPTIONS FOR COMMUNICATION ARCHITECTURE. THE FIRST OPTION IS THE DEFAULT SCENARIO WITH UNICAST COMMUNICATION USING POST/GET MESSAGES, WITH PROXY OPERATING IN FORWARD OR REVERSE MODE, AND REACTIVE OR
PROACTIVE DATA COLLECTION. THE SECOND OPTION IS DATA COLLECTION VIA MULTICAST GET MESSAGES FROM THE PROXY, INCLUDING THE IMPACT OF THE LEISURE PERIOD WHICH ALLOWS DEVICES TO REPLY AFTER A ARBITRARY (RANDOM) DELAY UPON RECEIVING A MULTICAST GET REQUEST. THE FINAL OPTION IS THE USE OF 'OBSERVE' FEATURE WHERE CLIENTS SUBSCRIBE TO SERVER NOTIFICATIONS THAT INFORM THEM OF CHANGED DATA VALUES. TO MAINTAIN THE FRESHNESS OF CACHED RECORDS UNDER RANDOM ARRIVALS OF OBSERVED DATA, WE HAVE IMPLEMENTED THE EVALUATION OF MAX-AGE PARAMETER AT THE PROXY. WE HAVE ALSO IMPLEMENTED CONGESTION CONTROL AT IOT NODES WHICH INTERACTS WITH PROXY'S FRESHNESS ESTIMATION AND ALLOWS THE PROXY TO PERFORM ITS OWN CONGESTION CONTROL. WE PRESENT PERFORMANCE DATA OF THESE OPTIONS, INCLUDING THE PROBABILITY OF SUCCESSFUL DATA TRANSMISSION, ROUND TRIP
DELAY AND ENERGY CONSUMPTION.
