abstract = {Currently, most IoT services are hosted centralized
in a cloud. However, they rely on data gathered by numerous
distributed sensors, which require to be connected to these clouds.
At the moment this is realized with non-IP based proprietary
wireless sensor networks that use inflexible networking concepts
and require to be carefully configured.
The Thread protocol, with its implementation OpenThread, is
a new wireless mesh approach to solve this problem. OpenThread
is maintained by the Thread group, which is an organization
supported by almost 300 companies, including Google, Amazon,
and Apple. Its design is based on an IPv6, for seamless integration
in existing IP networks.
This work, after a short a practical overview of the Thread
protocol in general, investigates the network performance in
different interference scenarios based on results from a hardware
testbed, set up in an office building. This testbed is based on
the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 System on a Chip (SoC),
running OpenThread from the official github repository. Besides
a thorough examination for round-trip-time (RTT) and losses, a
stability test was performed over five weeks, to see the impact
of interference during business hours. We measured RTTs in
the range of 10 to 100 ms and losses up to 40% depending
on interfering wireless services. Despite its obvious advantages,
from our experimental results, it is evident how some practical
limitations make OpenThread not always a good choice.},

abstract = {Wireless broadcast routing is a complex problem, shown in the literature to be NP-complete. Current protocols implement either heuristics to find solutions that are not guaranteed to be optimal or classic flooding. However, many future use cases, like automotive applications, industrial robotics and multimedia broadcast, will require efficient yet reliable methods. In this work, we use contextual multi-armed bandits together with opportunistic routing (OR) and network coding (NC) to find approximately optimal solutions to the problem of broadcast routing in a distributed fashion. Each router independently learns its own transmission credit, i.e., the number of packets to forward for each innovative packet received, so that the airtime cost, subject to latency constraints, is minimized. Results show that the proposed solutions, particularly the deep learning based one, vastly improve the verall reliability, while performing close to MORE multicast in terms of airtime and to B.A.T.M.A.N. in latency, both being the best candidates in the respective discipline among the tested ones.},
