Abstract: Embodiments herein disclose a method and system for optimizing communication in a heterogeneous network. The method includes forming, by a non-constrained device, an association between the non-constrained device and a constrained device, wherein the association is formed by the non-constrained device in response to receiving an association request broadcasted by the constrained device. Further, the method includes sending, by the non-constrained device, sleep information to the constrained device, wherein the sleep information for the constrained device is computed at the non-constrained device based on at least one parameter associated with the heterogeneous network.

Abstract: A system and a method for information acquisition of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) data as a cloud based service are provided. An apparatus in the system including a WSN, a service cloud, and a device, includes a virtual sensor configured to receive data from a physical sensor in the WSN. The apparatus further includes a virtual sensor controller configured to receive a request for the data from the service cloud or the device, and spawn a virtual machine (VM) based on the request. The apparatus further includes the VM configured to transmit the data to the service cloud or the device.
