Abstract:
The disclosure provides Internet of Things (IoT) systems organized as tree hierarchies in which rule processing can occur at each level of the tree hierarchies. In the IoT system according to one embodiment, formulas are defined and centrally managed at a cloud hub that is a root of a tree hierarchy. Each formula defined at the cloud hub is further percolated down to a hub, which may be the cloud hub itself or a local hub, in the tree hierarchy that is logically closest to devices specified in the formula. Each of the cloud and local hubs in the IoT system may utilize the same core IoT platform image, providing ease of management. In addition, formulas may be defined with basic stimuli and responses, as well as with higher-order stimuli and responses that combine one or more other stimuli and responses, respectively.

Claim (Index 16):
The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 10 , wherein:\n the IoT system comprises a plurality of hubs and devices, each of the hubs including a respective IoT platform instance; the hubs and the devices are organized in a tree hierarchy which includes a cloud hub from the plurality of hubs as a root node in the tree hierarchy, local hubs from the plurality of hubs as branch nodes in the tree hierarchy, and the devices as leaf nodes in the tree hierarchy; the receiving, evaluating, and causing steps are performed by one of the local hubs; and the formula is defined at the cloud hub and percolated down the tree hierarchy to the one of the local hubs.
