Title: Method for managing decisions, method for constructing a decision tree, central manager, intermediate manager, terminal and corresponding computer programme products
Inventor: BONJOUR SERVANE
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 2006-03-30
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for managing decisions between a central manager (GM) and at least one terminal (TM) in an architecture of networks distributed and prioritized according to N levels, with N = 2. The central manager is included in a level of rank N. The terminal is included in a level of rank 1. The method includes a step of distributing a decision tree constructed by the central manager and supported by the architecture. The step of distributing the decision tree itself includes the following steps, for a given terminal: based on the decision tree, called rank N tree, the central manager creates a simplified tree of rank N-1; if N = 2, the central manager transmits the simplified tree of rank N-1 to the given terminal, so that the latter takes a decision based on the simplified rank N-1 tree at the given terminal and executes same; if N = 3, the following steps are performed, after initializing k at N-1: a) the central manager transmits the simplified rank k tree to an intermediate manager of rank k (GA1, GA2) included in the level of rank k; b) the intermediate manager of rank k creates a simplified tree of rank k-1 based on the simplified tree of rank k; c) if k = 3, the intermediate manager of rank k transmits the simplified tree of rank k-1 to an intermediate manager of rank k-1 included in the level of rank k-1 and step b) is resumed after decrementing k by one unit; if k = 2, the intermediate manager of rank k transmits the simplified tree of rank k-1 to the given terminal, so that the given terminal takes a decision based on the simplified tree of rank k-1 and executes same.
