The importance of the Scheduler in IoT

Within the realm of IoT and cloud computing, a scheduler refers to a component or system that is responsible for managing and controlling the timing and execution of tasks, processes, or events. Its primary function is to ensure the smooth and efficient operation of various activities within an IoT cloud setup. Here are some advantages of employing a scheduler in an IoT cloud environment:

  • Task coordination: The scheduler facilitates the orchestration of multiple tasks and processes in an IoT cloud by allowing users to define dependencies and priorities. This ensures that tasks are executed in the desired sequence, which is particularly crucial in complex IoT systems involving interconnected devices and services.
  • Resource optimization: With the limited computational resources typically found in an IoT cloud, a scheduler optimizes its utilization by intelligently assigning tasks based on requirements, available resources, and priorities...
