Method and device for controlling a mesh communication network for executing tasks relating to stateless functions

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and a device for controlling a mesh communication network for executing tasks relating to stateless functions, the mesh communication network comprising gateway nodes and loT nodes. The method groups (110) the loT nodes into computing units, and selects (120) a resource manager gateway which selects (130) one compute orchestrator node per computing unit. The method computes (170) a response to a request by a majority vote based on intermediate responses collected (160) by the loT nodes of a computing unit. The final response is then transmitted (180) by the compute orchestrator node to the resource manager gateway which transmits (190) the response to a user that sent the request.
