Filed:

Nov 21, 2019

Appl. No.:

16/691357

Inventors:

- Armonk NY, US
Rahul Gupta - Austin TX, US
Timothy J. Hahn - Cary NC, US

International Classification:

G06F 3/06

Abstract:

Provided are techniques for grouping devices as a virtual device for providing better quality of device data. A group of devices in an Internet of Things (IoT) network is identified based on one or more attributes of each of the devices. The group of devices is provided as a single virtual device by: collecting data from each of the devices in the group, transforming the data, and using the transformed data to modify a device.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

Abstract:

Provided are techniques for authenticating a device. Accepted communication patterns representing accepted modes of communication between devices in an internet of things network are stored. In response to receiving a new communication from a requesting device of the devices, it is determined whether the new communication matches at least one of the accepted communication patterns. In response to determining that the new communication matches, there is a response to the new communication. In response to determining that the new communication does not match, flagging the new communication as an anomaly and determining how to process the new communication based on the flagging.

International Classification:

G06F 16/21
G06F 16/27
G06F 16/22

Abstract:

A blockchain may include various transactions which are identified and which require processing. The order of processing such transactions may be optimized by examining content of the transactions. One example operation may include one or more of identifying blockchain transactions, designating each of the blockchain transactions as an independent transaction type or a dependent transaction type, and determining an order to process the blockchain transactions based on the independent transaction type or the dependent transaction type.

Rahul Gupta - Leander TX, US

International Classification:

G06F 9/448
G06F 21/00

Abstract:

A method, computer program product, and system includes a processor(s) intercepting an instruction, upon receipt on the instruction, by the one or more processors in the computing device on a communications network, prior to execution of the instruction by the processor(s) in the computing device. The processor(s) determines a state of the computing device and based on the state of the computing device and a portion of the instruction, the processor(s) determines that the instruction is precluded from executing on the computing device.

International Classification:

G06Q 50/22
G07C 9/00
G06Q 10/06

Abstract:

Methods for chain of custody tracking for an object are described. Several sets of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors are organized in a network. Each set of sensors is configured to record one or more events relating to the object. Each event includes an event time, an event location, and an entity that is a custodian for the object at the time of the event. When the object changes custodians, proper custodianship is verified based on input from at least one set of IoT sensors.

International Classification:

H04L 12/24
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

In a method for device unavailability management within a network, a network device selects an advocate device as an agent of the network device. The network device defines a set of actions to be executed when the network device ever becomes unavailable. The set of actions is stored in a datastore and associated with the network device. Upon determining that the network device has become unavailable, the advocate device is notified and obtains the set of actions associated with the network device. The advocate device then executes the set of actions by the advocate device.
