The drawings herein are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification of the present disclosure, showing embodiments consistent with the present disclosure, and explaining the principles of the present disclosure together with the description.
The present disclosure is described in further detail with reference to the attached drawings, to clearly present the objects, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure.
The term “a plurality of” as referred to herein means two or more. The term “and/or”, describing the association relationship of the associated objects, indicates that there may be three relationships, for example, A and/or B, which may indicate that there are three cases where A exists separately, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists separately. The character “/” generally indicates that the contextual object is an “or” relationship.
Tree topology: evolved from the bus topology, which is an extension of the bus type structure. The tree topology is formed by adding branches to the bus type structure. The transmission medium of the tree topology may have multiple branches, but does not form a closed loop. The tree topology can be symmetrical and has a certain fault tolerance. When a branch fails, this branch can be separated from the entire structure. The information sent by any node can be transmitted by the transmission medium and is a broadcast network. It is a hierarchical structure, nodes are connected by hierarchy, information exchange is mainly between upper and lower nodes, and data exchange between adjacent nodes or peer nodes is generally not performed.
Exemplarily, the system for managing an IoT device includes one server 11 and one or more logical assets 12. The logical assets 12 include a plurality of IoT devices 13. The IoT devices 13 in the same logical asset 12 have the same logical attributes.
The logical attributes of the IoT device 13 include at least one of a spatial area location of the IoT device, a department to which the IoT device belongs, and a source of the IoT device.
Optionally, the server 11 and the IoT device 13 communicate with each other and are connected by a bus or a wireless network. After the server 11 establishes a connection with the IoT device 13, data information of the IoT device 13 is acquired.
The logical asset 12 corresponds to a logical asset node in a tree topology. The IoT device 13 corresponds to a device asset node in the tree topology. The device asset node as a leaf node and the logical asset node as a non-leaf node or a leaf node generate a tree topology.
Illustratively, in a system for managing an IoT energy device, the logical asset 12 is an industrial park and several factories. In the tree topology, the industrial park corresponds to a root node and is at the top of the tree topology. Logical asset nodes corresponding to several factories are child nodes of the logical asset node of the industrial park. In each factory, several IoT devices 13 are deployed, including wind energy devices, solar energy devices, natural gas devices, chemical devices, or the like. Device asset nodes corresponding to these IoT devices 13 are used as child nodes of the factory's logical asset node. The above asset node carries data information of the corresponding asset.
In step 201, device information and logic information of the IoT device are acquired. The logic information is intended to indicate a logical attribute of the IoT device.
Optionally, the device information of the IoT device includes at least one of a type of the IoT device, a name of the IoT device, information about other IoT devices connected to the IoT device, status of the IoT device, or online time of the IoT device.
Illustratively, in a system for managing a medical IoT device, the types of these medical IoT devices are distinguished according to the departments to which they belong. The types of medical IoT devices include at least one of an inspection IoT device, a neurosurgical IoT device, a cardiac medical IoT device, an otolaryngology IoT device, an ophthalmic IoT device, or a gynecological IoT device.
The status of the IoT device includes at least one of use status and idle status.
The moment when the IoT device is switched from the idle status to the use status is defined as the online time of the IoT device and recorded in the system for managing an IoT device.
The logical information of the IoT device includes at least one of spatial area location information of the IoT device, department information of the IoT device, and source information of the IoT device.
Illustratively, the logical information is spatial area location information of the IoT device. In a factory's system for managing an IoT device, all IoT devices are classified by factory building. The IoT devices in the same factory building have the same logical attributes.
Illustratively, the logical information is department information of the IoT device. In a company's system for managing an IoT device, all IoT devices are classified by department. The IoT devices in the same department have the same logical attributes.
Illustratively, the logical information is source information of the IoT device. In a hospital's system for managing an IoT device, all IoT devices are classified by source. The sources of all IoT devices are divided into donation and self-purchasing. All IoT devices the sources of which are donation have the same logical attributes. All IoT devices the sources of which are self-purchasing have the same logical attributes.
The IoT devices are connected by a bus (or a wireless network), and send their own device information and logical information to the server.
In step 202, a tree topology is generated based on the device information and the logic information of the IoT device. The tree topology includes at least two layers of asset nodes. Leaf nodes of the at least two layers of asset nodes are device asset nodes. Non-leaf nodes are the device asset nodes or logical asset nodes. The device asset node corresponds to the IoT device. The logical asset node corresponds to the logical attribute of the IoT device.
Optionally, the tree topology is generated based on the logic information of the IoT device. The logical information of the IoT device is spatial area location information of the IoT device. A parent node of the device asset node corresponding to the IoT device is determined based on the logic information.
Exemplarily, in a factory's system for managing an IoT device, all the IoT devices are divided by spatial area location. The IoT devices in the same factory building have the same logical attributes. The device asset nodes corresponding to all IoT devices with the same logical attributes are child nodes of the logical asset node corresponding to the factory building.
Optionally, the tree topology is generated based on the device information of the IoT device. The device information of the IoT device is information about other IoT devices connected to the IoT device. Whether the device asset node corresponding to the IoT device is a child node or a parent node of device asset nodes corresponding to other IoT devices is determined based on the device information.
Exemplarily, in the above factory's system for managing an IoT device, there is a lighting switch. The server may determine that the lighting switch is connected to a plurality of lighting devices in an office based on device information of the lighting switch. Then device asset nodes corresponding to the lighting devices connected to the lighting switch are used as child nodes of a device asset node corresponding to the lighting device.
As shown in
Based on logic information of a lighting switch 331, the server may determine that the lighting switch 331 is located in the factory 321. Then a device asset node corresponding to the lighting switch 331 is used as a child node of the logical asset node corresponding to the factory 321, and is located at the third layer of the tree topology.
Based on device information of the lighting switch 331, the server may determine that a lighting device 341, a lighting device 342, and a lighting device 343 are connected to and controlled by the lighting switch 331. Then device asset nodes corresponding to the lighting device 341, the lighting device 342, and the lighting device 343 are used as child nodes of the device asset node corresponding to the lighting switch 331 and is located at the fourth layer of the tree topology.
Optionally, when the tree topology is not generated based on the logic information of the IoT device, no logical asset node exists in the tree topology, and the root node of the tree topology is a device asset node.
In step 203, an ordered tree topology is acquired by sorting asset nodes in a same hierarchy in the tree topology.
The asset nodes in the same hierarchy are logical asset nodes, or the asset nodes in the same hierarchy are device asset nodes.
It should be noted that the logical asset node and the device asset node are not in the same hierarchy.
Sorting asset nodes in the same hierarchy in the tree topology includes sorting logical asset nodes in the same hierarchy and sorting device asset nodes in the same hierarchy.
In summary, the method according to this embodiment manages IoT devices, by using a tree topology, sorts device asset nodes in the same hierarchy, thereby realizing ordered management of the IoT devices.
In an optional embodiment based on the embodiment shown in
In step 2031, the ordered tree topology is acquired by sorting the asset nodes in the same hierarchy based on an order of locations of the IoT devices.
In an example, acquiring the ordered tree topology by sorting the asset nodes in the same hierarchy based on the order of locations of the IoT devices includes: receiving coordinate data of the IoT device; calculating a distance between the IoT device and a reference point based on the coordinate data of the IoT device; and acquiring the ordered tree topology by sorting the asset nodes in the same hierarchy based on the distance between the IoT device and the reference point.
Optionally, the coordinate data of the IoT device is determined by a satellite locating system. The server receives the coordinate data of the IoT device by establishing a connection with the satellite locating system.
The reference point is set by the administrator and may be located at any location.
Illustratively, the administrator setting the reference point is an IoT device a at the center of all the IoT devices of the layer, and distances of other IoT devices of the layer to the IoT device a are calculated. A sequence number value of the IoT device a is 1, and the closer an IoT device to the IoT device a, the smaller the sequence number value of the IoT device. By the sequence number, the administrator may directly determine which IoT devices in the same hierarchy are located in an edge region, and which IoT devices are located in a central region. In summary, the method according to this embodiment can meet the management requirements of the administrator by sorting IoT devices in the same hierarchy based on an order of locations of the IoT devices when the device distance needs to be reflected.
In step 2032, the ordered tree topology is acquired by sorting the asset nodes in the same hierarchy based on an order of importance of the IoT devices.
In an example, acquiring the ordered tree topology by sorting the asset nodes in the same hierarchy based on the order of importance of the IoT devices includes: receiving an importance set instruction; setting the importance of the IoT device based on the importance set instruction; and acquiring the ordered tree topology by sorting the asset nodes in the same hierarchy based on the importance of the IoT devices.
Optionally, the importance set instruction is customized by the administrator.
Optionally, the higher the degree of importance, the smaller the sequence number value of the IoT device. Among IoT devices in the same hierarchy, the IoT device with the lowest sequence number is the most important to the IoT system.
Illustratively, an IoT device in a laboratory is managed. The administrator sets the importance based on the frequency of use of all IoT devices, and the higher the frequency of use, the higher the importance. Among IoT devices in the same hierarchy, the administrator may directly determine the frequency of use of the IoT device based on the order of these IoT devices.
In summary, the method provided according to this embodiment can meet the management requirements of the administrator in a management scenario that needs to reflect device importance by sorting the IoT devices in the same hierarchy based on the order of importance of the IoT devices.
The management of the IoT device includes at least one of adding an IoT device, deleting an IoT device, and moving an IoT device.
When the IoT device is managed by using a tree topology, adding an IoT device corresponds to inserting an asset node at a certain layer of the tree topology.
Deleting an IoT device corresponds to deleting an asset node at a certain layer of the tree topology.
Moving an IoT device corresponds to moving an asset node at a certain layer of the tree topology.
In step 204, a node insert instruction is received. The node insert instruction is intended to indicate that T1 asset nodes are inserted between an M1th asset node and an (M1+1)th asset node of an N1th layer of the tree topology.
It is assumed that the tree topology has a total of N layers, and the value of N1 ranges from 1 to N.
It is assumed that the N1th layer of the tree topology has a total of M asset nodes, and the value of M1 ranges from 1 to M−1.
T1 is an arbitrary integer greater than zero.
The node insert instruction is triggered by the administrator. When it is necessary to add a new IoT device in the system for managing an IoT device, the administrator locates a device asset node corresponding to the newly added IoT device in the N1th layer of the tree topology based on the logical attribute of the newly added IoT device. The insertion location at the N1th layer is selected by the administrator.
Illustratively, in a system for managing a medical IoT device, a newly added electrocardiograph needs to be managed, and the electrocardiograph belongs to a medical IoT device of the cardiology department. In the tree topology, the cardiology department corresponds to a logical asset node and located at an (N1−1)th layer of the tree topology. Then a device asset node corresponding to the newly added electrocardiograph is used as a child node of the logical asset node of the cardiology department and inserted in the N1th layer of the tree topology.
In step 205, sequence numbers are assigned to the inserted T1 asset nodes based on a difference between a sequence number of the M1th asset node and a sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node.
The difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of an (M1+1)th asset node is calculated by the following formula 1:
W
SS
=V
M1+i
−V
M1 Formula one:
where WSS is the difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of an (M1+1)th asset node, VM1+i is a sequence number value of the (M1+1)th asset node, and VMi is a sequence number value of the M1th asset node.
The interval of the sequence number values of the inserted T1 asset nodes is as shown in the following formula 2:
A′=[(VM1+i−VM1)(T1+i)] Formula 2:
where A′ is the interval of the sequence number values of the inserted T1 asset nodes, and A′ is an integer, which is obtained by rounding.
In an example, when the difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is greater than T1, sequence numbers are assigned to the inserted T1 asset nodes by using sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node.
Calculation is performed by the value of i taking 1 in the above Formulas 1 and 2.
As shown in
The value of i is 1, and the difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is calculated by using Formula 1, WSS=VM1+1VM1=16−10=6. The value of Wss is 6, which is greater than the value 2 of T1.
Sequence numbers are assigned to the inserted T1 asset nodes by using sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node. The interval of the sequence number values of the inserted two asset nodes is calculated using Formula 2. A′=[(VM1+1−VM1)/(T1+1)]=[6/3]=2. A sequence number of the asset node t1 is assigned as Vt1=10+1*2=12, and a sequence number of the asset node t2 is assigned as Vt2=10+2*2=14.
In an example, when the difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is less than T1, a difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and a sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is calculated until the difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is greater than T1+i−1; the T1 asset nodes are inserted between the M1th asset node and the (M1+1)th asset node; and the sequence numbers of the (M1+1)th asset node to an (M1+i−1)th asset node are adjusted by using the sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node, and sequence numbers are assigned to the inserted T1 asset nodes.
As shown in
The value of i is 1, and the difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is calculated by using Formula 1, WSS=VM1+1−VM1=12−10=2. The value of Wss is 2, which is less than the value 3 of T1.
The value of i is 2, and a difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and a sequence number of an (M1+2)th asset node is calculated by using Formula 1, WSS=VM1+2−VM1=13−10=3. The value of Wss is 3, which is less than T1+i−1. The value is 4.
The value of i is 3, and a difference between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and a sequence number of an (M1+3)th asset node is calculated by using Formula 1, WSS=VM1+2−VM1=112−10=102. The value of Wss is 102, which is greater than the value 5 of T1+i−1.
The sequence numbers of the (M1+1)th asset node to the (M1+i−1)th asset node are adjusted by using the sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M1th asset node and the sequence number of the (M1+3)th asset node, and the inserted T1 asset nodes are assigned sequence numbers. The interval of the sequence number values of the inserted three asset nodes are calculated by using Formula 2.
A sequence number of the asset node t1 is assigned as Vt1=10+1*17=27. A sequence number of the asset node t2 is assigned as Vt2=10+2*17=44. A sequence number of the asset node t3 is assigned as Vt3=10+3*17=61. The sequence number of the (M1+1)th asset node is adjusted to VM1+1=10+4*17=78. The sequence number of the (M1+2)th asset node is adjusted to VM1+1=10+5*17=95.
It should be noted that the M1th asset node and the (M1+1)th asset node in the foregoing embodiment both exist, and inserting T1 asset nodes between the M1th asset node and the (M1+1)th asset node at the N1th layer of the tree topology structure also includes the following situations.
1. The M1th asset node does not exist, the (M1+1)th asset node exists, and T1 asset nodes from a t1th asset node to a tith asset node are inserted.
The sequence numbers of the inserted T1 asset nodes are Vti=VM1+1−ti*A, (ti=1, 2, 3 . . . ), where A is a fixed value, and the sequence number difference of the inserted adjacent asset nodes is A.
2. The M1th asset node exists, the (M1+1)th asset node does not exist, and T1 asset nodes from the t1th asset node to the tith asset node are inserted.
The sequence number of the inserted T1 asset nodes is Vti=VM1+1+ti*A, (ti=1, 2, 3 . . . ), where A is a fixed value, and the sequence number difference of the inserted adjacent asset nodes is A.
3. The M1th asset node does not exist, the (M1+1)th asset node does not exist, and T1 asset nodes from the t1th asset node to the tith asset node are inserted.
The sequence numbers of the inserted T1 asset nodes are Vti=MIN_VALUE+ti*A, (ti=1, 2, 3 . . . ), where A is a fixed value, and the sequence number difference of the inserted adjacent asset nodes is A. MIN_VALUE is a fixed value and the user sets the value of MIN_VALUE by the server.
In summary, the method provided in this embodiment can quickly insert a device asset node corresponding to a newly added IoT device when more IoT devices need to be managed by receiving a node insert instruction and inserting several asset nodes at specified locations, and at the same time does not affect the ordering of the IoT devices managed at this layer.
In step 206, a node delete instruction is received. The node delete instruction is intended to indicate that the T2 asset nodes are deleted in the N2th layer of the tree topology.
It is assumed that the tree topology has a total of N layers, and the value of N2 ranges from 1 to N. T2 is any integer greater than zero.
The node delete instruction is triggered by the administrator.
In step 207, the T2 asset nodes of the N2th layer are deleted, and sequence numbers of the T2 asset nodes are eliminated.
It should be noted that the T2 asset nodes that are deleted may have other asset nodes mounted, and the mounted asset nodes are also deleted.
It should be noted that deleting the T2 asset nodes of the N2th layer does not affect the sequence number values of other undeleted asset nodes of the layer.
As shown in
It should be noted that the sequence number of the M2th asset node is still 10, the sequence number of an (M2+2)th asset node is still 13, and the sequence number of the (M2+2)th asset node is still 122, which will not change due to the deletion of the (M2+1)th asset node.
In summary, the method provided in this embodiment receives a node delete instruction and deletes an asset node at a specified location when it is not required to manage an IoT device, and does not affect the ordering of other asset nodes at this layer at the same time.
In step 208, a node move instruction is received. The node move instruction is intended to indicate that T3 asset nodes of an N3th layer are moved into between an M3th asset data node and an (M3+1)th asset data node of the N3th layer.
It is assumed that the tree topology has a total of N layers, and the value of N3 ranges from 1 to N.
It is assumed that the N3th layer of the tree topology has a total of M asset nodes, and the value of M3 ranges from 1 to M−1.
T3 is any integer greater than zero.
The node move instruction is triggered by the administrator. When it is necessary to move some IoT devices in the system for managing an IoT device, the administrator moves device asset nodes corresponding to the newly added IoT devices to the N1th layer of the tree topology based on the logical attributes of the newly added IoT devices, and the insertion locations at the N1th layer are selected by the administrator.
Illustratively, in a system for managing a medical IoT device, a surgical microscope of a neurosurgery department needs to be moved to a shaping department for management. In the tree topology, the shaping department corresponds to a logical asset node and located at the (N1−1)th layer of the tree topology. Then a device asset node corresponding to the surgical microscope to be moved is used as a child node of the logical asset node of the shaping department and inserted at the N1th layer of the tree topology.
In step 209, the T3 asset nodes of the N3th layer are deleted, and the sequence numbers of the T3 asset nodes are eliminated.
It should be noted that deleting the T3 asset nodes of the N3th layer does not affect the sequence number values of other undeleted asset nodes of the layer.
In step 2010, sequence numbers are assigned to the inserted T3 asset nodes based on a difference between a sequence number of the M3 asset node and a sequence number of the (M3+1)th asset ode.
Optionally, when the difference between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+1)th asset node is greater than T3, the sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+1)th asset node are assigned to the inserted T3 asset nodes.
Optionally, when the difference between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+1)th asset node is less than T3, a difference between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and a sequence number of an (M3+i)th asset node is calculated until the difference between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+i)th asset node is greater than T3+i−1; T3 asset nodes are inserted between the M3th asset node and the (M3+i)th asset node; and the sequence numbers of the (M3+1)th asset node to an (M3+i−1)th asset node are adjusted by using the sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+i)th asset node and sequence numbers are assigned to the inserted T3 asset nodes.
As shown in
The (M3+2)th asset node of the layer is deleted, and the sequence number 13 of the (M3+2)th asset is eliminated.
The difference between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+1)th asset node is calculated, WSS=VM3+1−VM3=12−10=2. The value of Wss is 2, which is greater than the value 1 of T1.
The sequence numbers between the sequence number of the M3th asset node and the sequence number of the (M3+1)th asset node are assigned to the inserted one asset node. The interval of the sequence number value of the inserted one asset node is calculated,
A′=[(VM3+1−VM1)/(T3+1)]=[(12−10)/2]=1. The sequence number of the (M3+2)th asset node is reassigned as VM3+2=10+1*1=11.
In summary, in the method provided in this embodiment, when it is required to move the location of a certain asset node in a tree topology, the asset node is first deleted by receiving a node move instruction, and then the asset node is inserted into a specified location without affecting the ordering of other asset nodes in the same layer.
