Abstract

IoT uses different hardware and software components in a mixed environment, and for the management of the devices, interoperability and reliability are key issues. Interactive job execution is another important concept for the management in different scenarios. The literature lacks a tool with such characteristics. This work fills the gap in the state-of-the-art by introducing a tool that achieves interactive job execution over a network of heterogeneous devices with reliable message delivery. The tool leverages the power of the protocol Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) and the message broker RabbitMQ. AMQP is an open standard Machine-to-Machine (M2M) publish/subscribe messaging protocol optimized for high-latency and unreliable networks that enables client applications to communicate with conforming messaging middleware brokers. RabbitMQ is an open-source message broker that supports various message protocols. The architecture of Runlet is discussed in detail, including the reasoning behind architectural decisions. The evaluation is conducted through an experimental approach that assesses interactivity and reliability on a testbed of devices composed of single-board ARM computers and laptop devices. The experimental results show that the application offers interactivity under different scenarios and provides reliable message delivery after node and server failures.
