Abstract
The present disclosure is related to device management in a machine to machine (M2M) network. Particularly, the present disclosure relates to performing an efficient device management based on correlations between M2M devices in the M2M network.
Claims16
A method of performing a device management in a machine to machine (M2M) network, the method comprising:
- collecting M2M data from a plurality of M2M devices;
- based on the collected M2M data, obtaining one or more correlation values between M2M devices included in a device group;
- and
- controlling an operation of at least one M2M device among MINI devices having a relatively greater correlation value than a reference value,
- wherein the obtaining includes:
- extracting data samples for each M2M device, through a data sampling of the M2M data;
- forming data sample pairs for each M2M device pair;
- and
- calculating a correlation value using the data sample pairs, per M2M device pair, and
- wherein the controlling an operation of each of the selected M2M devices includes:
- determining whether each correlation value satisfies an operation condition;
- identifying operation information corresponding to a satisfied operation condition;
- and
- controlling the identified operation of the selected M2M device, according to the operation information.

An apparatus for performing a device management in a machine to machine (M2M) network, the apparatus comprising:
- a data storage configured to receive M2M data from a plurality of M2M devices and store the received M2M data;
- a correlation analysis processor configured to obtain correlation values, from the stored M2M data, between M2M devices included in a device group;
- and
- an operation control processor configured to control an operation of at least one M2M device among M2M devices having a relatively greater correlation value than a reference value,
- wherein the correlation analysis processor is configured to:
- (i) extract data samples for each M2M device, through a data sampling of the M2M data;
- (ii) form data sample pairs for each M2M device pair;
- and
- (iii) calculate a correlation value using the data sample pairs, per M2M device pair, and
- wherein the operation control processor is configured to:
- (i) determine whether each correlation value satisfies an operation condition;
- (ii) identify operation information corresponding to a satisfied operation condition;
- and
- (iii) control the operation of the selected M2M device, according to the operation information.
