Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0065] With the popularization of smart home devices, the number of devices in the home device network is increasing, including home hosts, smart appliances, sensors, and mobile terminals, etc. These devices form a unified home device network through the home host, relying on the home host to complete the collaborative operation between devices.

[0066] As the core of network control, the home host can achieve efficient collaboration between devices, but it needs to process a large amount of calculations and data traffic, which can easily cause performance bottlenecks, especially when there are a large number of devices. In serious cases, such as when the CPU or memory usage of the home host is too high, it can easily lead to performance degradation or even downtime of the home host, affecting the stability of the entire home device network.

[0067] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention improves the network control method in the related art based on the core technical concept of dynamically and reasonably allocating network resources of home appliances. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0068] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flowchart of a network control method provided by some embodiments of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0069] Step 101, in response to a home device networking operation, determining a bound home host and sub-device in a home device network;

[0070] In the specific implementation, Figure 2As shown, when the home device is networked, the home host and the sub-device are generally bound. Therefore, after the home device is networked, the bound home host and the sub-device can be determined in the home device network to facilitate the subsequent resource allocation process.

[0071] Step 102, determining the resource occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network through the home host, and determining the service to be processed by the home host and the resource occupancy requirement of the service;

[0072] In the specific implementation, Figure 2 As shown, the home host can obtain the CPU resource occupancy rate and memory usage reported by the sub-device, so as to determine the resource occupancy of the sub-device based on this; and can further determine the services that the home host needs to process and the resource occupancy requirements of the services, such as the memory resources and other resource occupancy requirements required by these services, so as to determine in the subsequent process whether the services that the home host needs to process can be allocated to the sub-device for processing.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, determining the resource occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network by the home host includes:

[0074] The home host determines the CPU occupancy and memory occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network, and determines the resource occupancy of the sub-device based on the CPU occupancy and memory occupancy.

[0075] In actual applications, the CPU resource occupancy rate (CPU occupancy) and memory usage (memory occupancy) reported by the sub-device can be obtained through the home host, so as to determine the overall resource occupancy of the sub-device.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present invention, the determining of the service to be processed by the home host and the resource occupation requirement of the service includes:

[0077] The services to be processed by the home host and the CPU occupancy requirements and memory occupancy requirements of the services are determined, and the resource occupancy requirements of the services are determined according to the CPU occupancy requirements and the memory occupancy requirements.

[0078] In actual applications, for the services that the home host needs to process, the CPU usage and memory usage requirements of these services can also be determined, and the overall resource usage requirements of these services can be determined accordingly, so as to facilitate subsequent comparison of the same dimensions to confirm whether these services can be assigned to sub-devices for processing.

[0079] Step 103: Allocate the service to the sub-device through the home host according to the resource occupancy status and the resource occupancy requirement.

[0080] In a specific implementation, after determining the resource usage of the sub-device, the services that the home host needs to process, and the resource usage requirements of the services, the home host can compare the resource usage with the resource usage requirements, and determine the target service that can be processed by the sub-device in the service based on the comparison result; then, the home host can determine the first target sub-device that can process the target service in the sub-device based on the resource usage requirements of the target service, and allocate the target service to the first target sub-device.

[0081] In one example, taking memory resources as an example, if the memory resources required for the home host to implement the corresponding service of controlling the sub-device are 20M, it can be determined among all the sub-devices whether there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M. If there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M, then the service is the target service that can be processed by the sub-device; further, a first target sub-device for processing the target service can be randomly or according to preset rules selected from these sub-devices with available memory space greater than 20M, and the target service can be assigned to the first target sub-device for processing, that is, the resources of the home host may not be used, and the control instructions can be sent entirely by this sub-device; thereby reducing the memory usage of the home host and improving the stability of the home device network.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present invention, allocating the service to the sub-device according to the resource occupancy status and the resource occupancy requirement by the home host includes:

[0083] Comparing the resource occupancy situation with the resource occupancy requirement through the home host, and determining a target service that can be processed by the sub-device in the service according to the comparison result;

[0084] The home host determines a first target sub-device that can process the target service among the sub-devices according to the resource occupation requirement of the target service, and allocates the target service to the first target sub-device.

[0085] In actual applications, after determining the resource usage of the sub-device, the services that the home host needs to process, and the resource usage requirements of the services, the home host can compare the resource usage with the resource usage requirements, and determine the target service that can be processed by the sub-device in the service based on the comparison result; then, the home host can determine the first target sub-device that can process the target service in the sub-device based on the resource usage requirements of the target service, and allocate the target service to the first target sub-device.

[0086] In one example, taking memory resources as an example, if the memory resources required for the home host to implement the corresponding service of controlling the sub-device are 20M, it can be determined among all the sub-devices whether there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M. If there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M, then the service is the target service that can be processed by the sub-device; further, a first target sub-device for processing the target service can be randomly or according to preset rules selected from these sub-devices with available memory space greater than 20M, and the target service can be assigned to the first target sub-device for processing, that is, the resources of the home host may not be used, and the control instructions can be sent entirely by this sub-device; thereby reducing the memory usage of the home host and improving the stability of the home device network.

[0087] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method further comprises:

[0088] The home host determines the allocated services in the downed sub-device in response to the downtime of any of the sub-devices, and allocates the allocated services to other sub-devices among the sub-devices except the downed sub-device.

[0089] In a specific implementation, there is generally a heartbeat link between the sub-device managed by the home host and the home host to determine whether the sub-device is disconnected. If the sub-device is completely down, the heartbeat link between the sub-device and the home host will also be disconnected. That is, the home host can detect the abnormality of the downed sub-device, and can further notify the sub-devices other than the downed sub-device to start the service function that was previously running on the downed sub-device, that is, the allocated service can be allocated to the sub-devices other than the downed sub-device, to ensure the stability of the home device network.

[0090] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method further comprises:

[0091] In response to the downtime of the home host, a second target sub-device is determined in the sub-devices, and a temporary home device network is constructed through the second target sub-device under the condition that the second target sub-device is used as a temporary home host.

[0092] In actual applications, all devices in the home device network may have abnormal communication. The home host is the brain of the home device interconnection. If an abnormality occurs, it means that all local controls in the home are invalid. At this time, you can select a temporary device from the sub-devices to reorganize the functions of the home host and form a new brain. After the home host is restored, the temporary server can be deregistered. However, when the home host has network communication abnormalities, other devices generally cannot communicate with the home host. Therefore, the high-performance central control and / or APP directly connected to the host can start its own services and wake up the sub-devices that previously communicated with the host, and re-establish a new temporary server through the sub-devices. At the same time, it can also continuously scan the status of the home host. When the abnormal state of the home host is restored, the local network communication of the home host is restored.

[0093] like Figure 3 As shown, if the home host is down, the sub-device will not be able to be awakened or deployed by the home host. At this time, the sub-device can determine whether the home host is completely down through UBind, heartbeat packets and TCP activity after being disconnected from the home host for a period of time, and can determine the second target sub-device that can carry the core functions of the home host in the sub-device according to the above comparison results. For example, the sub-device with the largest available memory space and / or the lowest CPU occupancy rate can be determined as the second target sub-device; thus, when it is determined that the home host is completely down, the service used by the home host can be enabled through the second target sub-device to build a temporary home device network, maintain local communication, and send an alarm reminder to the customer through the relevant APP in the temporary home device network; for example, when the APP is in the local home host network, if the original service of the home host has been switched to the second target sub-device, then the APP can pop up a corresponding alarm message to notify the user of the abnormal communication of the home host according to the time when the home host is disconnected fed back by the second target sub-device, and can restart the home host to try to restore the network. If the network cannot be restored, the after-sales maintenance phone number and the maintenance platform address and other information can be popped up to the user.

[0094] After the home host resumes normal operation, the network communication status of the home host can be restored. The second target sub-device can save temporary data in the temporary home device network during the downtime of the home host, so that when the downed home host resumes normal operation, the temporary data can be sent to the home host through the second target sub-device for subsequent recovery of the home host data.

[0095] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method further comprises:

[0096] In response to insufficient memory of any of the sub-devices, the home host initiates memory subsidy to the sub-device with insufficient memory through the home host and / or other sub-devices among the sub-devices except the sub-device with insufficient memory.

[0097] In a specific implementation, when any sub-device in a home device network runs out of memory, memory subsidies can be initiated to the sub-device with insufficient memory through the home host and / or other sub-devices except the sub-device with insufficient memory. For example, memory subsidies can be provided based on an internal protocol through distributed memory sharing or dynamic memory allocation to ensure that the sub-device operates normally.

[0098] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method further comprises:

[0099] Saving temporary data in the temporary home device network by the second target sub-device during the downtime of the home host;

[0100] When the downtime home host resumes normal operation, the temporary data is sent to the home host through the second target sub-device.

[0101] In actual applications, if the home host crashes, the sub-device will not be able to be awakened or deployed by the home host. At this time, the sub-device can determine whether the home host has completely crashed through UBind, heartbeat packets and TCP activity after being disconnected from the home host for a period of time, and can determine the second target sub-device that can carry the core functions of the home host in the sub-device according to the above comparison results. For example, the sub-device with the largest available memory space and / or the lowest CPU occupancy rate can be determined as the second target sub-device; thus, when it is determined that the home host is completely down, the service used by the home host can be enabled through the second target sub-device to build a temporary home device network, maintain local communication, and send an alarm reminder to the customer through the relevant APP in the temporary home device network; for example, when the APP is in the local home host network, if the original service of the home host has been switched to the second target sub-device, then the APP can pop up a corresponding alarm message to notify the user of the abnormal communication of the home host according to the time when the home host is disconnected fed back by the second target sub-device, and can restart the home host to try to restore the network. If the network cannot be restored, the after-sales maintenance phone number and maintenance platform address and other information can be popped up to the user.

[0102] After the home host resumes normal operation, the network communication status of the home host can be restored. The second target sub-device can save temporary data in the temporary home device network during the downtime of the home host, so that when the downed home host resumes normal operation, the temporary data can be sent to the home host through the second target sub-device for subsequent recovery of the home host data.

[0103] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method further comprises:

[0104] An alarm reminder message is sent to the user through a related application in the temporary home device network.

[0105] In actual applications, if the home host crashes, the sub-device will not be able to be awakened or deployed by the home host. At this time, the sub-device can determine whether the home host has completely crashed through UBind, heartbeat packets and TCP activity after being disconnected from the home host for a period of time, and can determine the second target sub-device that can carry the core functions of the home host in the sub-device according to the above comparison results. For example, the sub-device with the largest available memory space and / or the lowest CPU occupancy rate can be determined as the second target sub-device; thus, when it is determined that the home host is completely down, the service used by the home host can be enabled through the second target sub-device to build a temporary home device network, maintain local communication, and send an alarm reminder to the customer through the relevant APP in the temporary home device network; for example, when the APP is in the local home host network, if the original service of the home host has been switched to the second target sub-device, then the APP can pop up a corresponding alarm message to notify the user of the abnormal communication of the home host according to the time when the home host is disconnected fed back by the second target sub-device, and can restart the home host to try to restore the network. If the network cannot be restored, the after-sales maintenance phone number and maintenance platform address and other information can be popped up to the user.

[0106] Reference Figure 4 , shows a flowchart of another network control method provided by some embodiments of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0107] Step 401, in response to the home device networking operation, determining the bound home host and sub-device in the home device network;

[0108] In the specific implementation, Figure 2 As shown, when the home device is networked, the home host and the sub-device are generally bound. Therefore, after the home device is networked, the bound home host and the sub-device can be determined in the home device network to facilitate the subsequent resource allocation process.

[0109] Step 402, determining the resource occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network through the home host, and determining the service to be processed by the home host and the resource occupancy requirement of the service;

[0110] In the specific implementation, Figure 2As shown, the home host can obtain the CPU resource occupancy rate and memory usage reported by the sub-device, so as to determine the resource occupancy of the sub-device based on this; and can further determine the services that the home host needs to process and the resource occupancy requirements of the services, such as the memory resources and other resource occupancy requirements required by these services, so as to determine in the subsequent process whether the services that the home host needs to process can be allocated to the sub-device for processing.

[0111] Step 403, allocating the service to the sub-device through the home host according to the resource occupancy situation and the resource occupancy requirement;

[0112] In a specific implementation, after determining the resource usage of the sub-device, the services that the home host needs to process, and the resource usage requirements of the services, the home host can compare the resource usage with the resource usage requirements, and determine the target service that can be processed by the sub-device in the service based on the comparison result; then, the home host can determine the first target sub-device that can process the target service in the sub-device based on the resource usage requirements of the target service, and allocate the target service to the first target sub-device.

[0113] In one example, taking memory resources as an example, if the memory resources required for the home host to implement the corresponding service of controlling the sub-device are 20M, it can be determined among all the sub-devices whether there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M. If there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M, then the service is the target service that can be processed by the sub-device; further, a first target sub-device for processing the target service can be randomly or according to preset rules selected from these sub-devices with available memory space greater than 20M, and the target service can be assigned to the first target sub-device for processing, that is, the resources of the home host may not be used, and the control instructions can be sent entirely by this sub-device; thereby reducing the memory usage of the home host and improving the stability of the home device network.

[0114] Step 404: In response to the downtime of any of the sub-devices, the home host determines the allocated services in the downed sub-device and allocates the allocated services to the other sub-devices except the downed sub-device.

[0115] In a specific implementation, there is generally a heartbeat link between the sub-device managed by the home host and the home host to determine whether the sub-device is disconnected. If the sub-device is completely down, the heartbeat link between the sub-device and the home host will also be disconnected. That is, the home host can detect the abnormality of the downed sub-device, and can further notify the sub-devices other than the downed sub-device to start the service function that was previously running on the downed sub-device, that is, the allocated service can be allocated to the sub-devices other than the downed sub-device, to ensure the stability of the home device network.

[0116] Reference Figure 5 , shows a flowchart of another network control method provided by some embodiments of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0117] Step 501, in response to the home device networking operation, determining the bound home host and sub-device in the home device network;

[0118] In the specific implementation, Figure 2 As shown, when the home device is networked, the home host and the sub-device are generally bound. Therefore, after the home device is networked, the bound home host and the sub-device can be determined in the home device network to facilitate the subsequent resource allocation process.

[0119] Step 502, determining the resource occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network through the home host, and determining the service to be processed by the home host and the resource occupancy requirement of the service;

[0120] In the specific implementation, Figure 2 As shown, the home host can obtain the CPU resource occupancy rate and memory usage reported by the sub-device, so as to determine the resource occupancy of the sub-device based on this; and can further determine the services that the home host needs to process and the resource occupancy requirements of the services, such as the memory resources and other resource occupancy requirements required by these services, so as to determine in the subsequent process whether the services that the home host needs to process can be allocated to the sub-device for processing.

[0121] Step 503, allocating the service to the sub-device through the home host according to the resource occupancy situation and the resource occupancy requirement;

[0122] In a specific implementation, after determining the resource usage of the sub-device, the services that the home host needs to process, and the resource usage requirements of the services, the home host can compare the resource usage with the resource usage requirements, and determine the target service that can be processed by the sub-device in the service based on the comparison result; then, the home host can determine the first target sub-device that can process the target service in the sub-device based on the resource usage requirements of the target service, and allocate the target service to the first target sub-device.

[0123] In one example, taking memory resources as an example, if the memory resources required for the home host to implement the corresponding service of controlling the sub-device are 20M, it can be determined among all the sub-devices whether there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M. If there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M, then the service is the target service that can be processed by the sub-device; further, a first target sub-device for processing the target service can be randomly or according to preset rules selected from these sub-devices with available memory space greater than 20M, and the target service can be assigned to the first target sub-device for processing, that is, the resources of the home host may not be used, and the control instructions can be sent entirely by this sub-device; thereby reducing the memory usage of the home host and improving the stability of the home device network.

[0124] Step 504, in response to the downtime of the home host, determine a second target sub-device in the sub-devices, and build a temporary home device network through the second target sub-device under the condition that the second target sub-device is used as a temporary home host.

[0125] In practical applications, such as Figure 3 As shown, if the home host is down, the sub-device will not be able to be awakened or deployed by the home host. At this time, the sub-device can determine whether the home host is completely down through UBind, heartbeat packets and TCP activity after being disconnected from the home host for a period of time, and can determine the second target sub-device that can carry the core functions of the home host in the sub-device according to the above comparison results. For example, the sub-device with the largest available memory space and / or the lowest CPU occupancy rate can be determined as the second target sub-device; thus, when it is determined that the home host is completely down, the service used by the home host can be enabled through the second target sub-device to build a temporary home device network, maintain local communication, and send an alarm reminder to the customer through the relevant APP in the temporary home device network; for example, when the APP is in the local home host network, if the original service of the home host has been switched to the second target sub-device, then the APP can pop up a corresponding alarm message to notify the user of the abnormal communication of the home host according to the time when the home host is disconnected fed back by the second target sub-device, and can restart the home host to try to restore the network. If the network cannot be restored, the after-sales maintenance phone number and the maintenance platform address and other information can be popped up to the user.

[0126] After the home host resumes normal operation, the network communication status of the home host can be restored. The second target sub-device can save temporary data in the temporary home device network during the downtime of the home host, so that when the downed home host resumes normal operation, the temporary data can be sent to the home host through the second target sub-device for subsequent recovery of the home host data.

[0127] Reference Figure 6 , shows a flowchart of another network control method provided by some embodiments of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0128] Step 601, in response to the home device networking operation, determining the bound home host and sub-device in the home device network;

[0129] In the specific implementation, Figure 2 As shown, when the home device is networked, the home host and the sub-device are generally bound. Therefore, after the home device is networked, the bound home host and the sub-device can be determined in the home device network to facilitate the subsequent resource allocation process.

[0130] Step 602, determining the resource occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network through the home host, and determining the service to be processed by the home host and the resource occupancy requirement of the service;

[0131] In the specific implementation, Figure 2 As shown, the home host can obtain the CPU resource occupancy rate and memory usage reported by the sub-device, so as to determine the resource occupancy of the sub-device based on this; and can further determine the services that the home host needs to process and the resource occupancy requirements of the services, such as the memory resources and other resource occupancy requirements required by these services, so as to determine in the subsequent process whether the services that the home host needs to process can be allocated to the sub-device for processing.

[0132] Step 603, allocating the service to the sub-device through the home host according to the resource occupancy situation and the resource occupancy requirement;

[0133] In a specific implementation, after determining the resource usage of the sub-device, the services that the home host needs to process, and the resource usage requirements of the services, the home host can compare the resource usage with the resource usage requirements, and determine the target service that can be processed by the sub-device in the service based on the comparison result; then, the home host can determine the first target sub-device that can process the target service in the sub-device based on the resource usage requirements of the target service, and allocate the target service to the first target sub-device.

[0134] In one example, taking memory resources as an example, if the memory resources required for the home host to implement the corresponding service of controlling the sub-device are 20M, it can be determined among all the sub-devices whether there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M. If there is a sub-device with available memory space greater than 20M, then the service is the target service that can be processed by the sub-device; further, a first target sub-device for processing the target service can be randomly or according to preset rules selected from these sub-devices with available memory space greater than 20M, and the target service can be assigned to the first target sub-device for processing, that is, the resources of the home host may not be used, and the control instructions can be sent entirely by this sub-device; thereby reducing the memory usage of the home host and improving the stability of the home device network.

[0135] Step 604: In response to the insufficient memory condition of any of the sub-devices, the home host initiates memory subsidy to the insufficient memory sub-device through the home host and / or other sub-devices among the sub-devices except the insufficient memory sub-device.

[0136] In a specific implementation, when any sub-device in a home device network runs out of memory, memory subsidies can be initiated to the sub-device with insufficient memory through the home host and / or other sub-devices except the sub-device with insufficient memory. For example, memory subsidies can be provided based on an internal protocol through distributed memory sharing or dynamic memory allocation to ensure that the sub-device operates normally.

[0137] The embodiment of the present invention provides a network control method, which determines the bound home host and sub-device in the home device network by responding to the home device networking operation; then determines the resource occupancy of the sub-device in the home device network through the home host, and determines the service to be processed by the home host and the resource occupancy demand of the service; thereby, the home host allocates the service to the sub-device according to the resource occupancy and resource occupancy demand. The dynamic and reasonable allocation of home device network resources is realized, the control performance of the home device network is avoided to be affected by the excessive processing volume of the home host, the resource utilization rate of the home device network is improved, and the stability of the home device network is improved.

[0138] Specifically, taking CPU utilization as an example, after the home devices are networked, the home host can compare the CPU utilization of the services it needs to process with that of the other sub-devices, and use high-occupancy services on devices with low CPU utilization, thereby reducing the home host's own CPU resource utilization, thereby greatly enhancing the stability of the device network. Even if the home host has a communication anomaly and causes a crash, other sub-devices can take over the home host's communication work and continue to maintain network operation.
