Patent ID: 11943300
Assignee: HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT LP
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A system comprising:
a plurality of light-leaf nodes (LLNs) communicatively connected to one another, each LLN having sensing capability;
a plurality of heavy-leaf nodes (HLNs) communicatively connected to one another and to the LLNs, each HLN having processing capability; and
one or more backend nodes (BENs) communicatively connected to the HLNs, each BEN acting as a communication gateway by which the system is interacted with externally, such that the HLNs are externally accessible through the BENs, and the LLNs are externally accessible through the BENs and the HLNs,
wherein the LLN of the plurality of LLNs is configured to:
capture raw data responsive to a sensing event,
generate distilled raw data from the raw data of the sensing event, and
transmit the distilled raw data to a given HLN of the plurality of HLNs;

wherein the given HLN of the plurality of HLNs is configured to:
perform decisional or reasoning processing on the distilled raw data to generate an action,
transmit instructions for performing the action to the LLN.
