IoTScal-2CoM-ALO: An Adaptive Load Orchestration Framework for Scalable Collaborative IoT Systems

The rapid proliferation of IoT devices and ecosystems creates significant challenges in managing increasing data traffic and service requests while maintaining system performance [1]– [3]. In oneM2M-based IoT systems, overloaded Common Service Entities (CSEs) can become bottlenecks, leading to resource saturation, higher latency, and request loss [4]. To address these challenges, this paper proposes IoTScal-2CoM-ALO, an adaptive load orchestration framework that introduces a two-level collaboration model (2CoM) enabling distributed CSEs to cooperate within and across domains. The framework incorporates an Adaptive Load Orchestration (ALO) mechanism that continuously monitors key performance indicators, including CPU utilization, memory consumption, round-trip time (RTT), and packet loss, to detect overload conditions and dynamically redirect traffic to suitable neighboring CSEs. The proposed approach is evaluated in a simulated distributed oneM2M environment under heterogeneous traffic conditions. Experimental results demonstrate significant performance improvements compared with non-collaborative and static collaboration approaches, achieving up to 73% reduction in memory consumption, RTT peak reductions of up to 4750 ms, and success rate improvements of approximately 4.8%. These results highlight the effectiveness of IoTScal-2CoM-ALO in improving resource utilization and maintaining service continuity in scalable IoT systems.

Lightweight IoT Node Offloading Framework for Real-Time Edge Analytics

The rapid growth of Internet of Things (IoT) deployments has intensified the need for efficient, decentralized computation management at the network edge. This paper presents a lightweight, neighbor-aware one-hop task offloading framework designed for resource-constrained IoT networks. The proposed adaptive scheme combines Exponential Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) load estimation with a queue-depth gate to prevent unnecessary offloading under transient load spikes, and an assignment-pressure mechanism to distribute tasks more evenly across neighboring nodes. We evaluate the framework using a custom-developed discrete-event simulator on a 90-node ringplus-chord topology with heterogeneous hotspot and light nodes, comparing against three baselines: local-only execution, random offloading, and least-loaded neighbor selection. Results show that a load-aware but pressure-unaware least-loaded strategy surprisingly produces the highest load variance (377.25), worse than random offloading (114.84), due to severe task funneling toward persistently fast nodes. The proposed scheme eliminates task drops entirely, achieves an average latency of 148.7 ms, and reduces task-count variance to 44.33 - an $8.5 \times$ improvement over the least-loaded baseline and 4.6× over local-only execution - while requiring only 28.21% of tasks to be offloaded. These results demonstrate that assignment-pressure tracking is essential for fair load distribution in energy-limited IoT deployments.
