The revolutionized vision of IoT has united heterogeneous devices to foster the systems of cohesive intelligent things. In addition, Fog computing has also envisioned a new form of cloud computing paradigm. Therefore, Fog provides edge computing to such IoT devices with varied capabilities and resources. However, a balanced and efficient pairing or matching strategy for edge IoT nodes is crucial to achieve the user requisite. Hence, this paper addresses the utility based matching or pairing problem within the same domain of IoT nodes by using Irving's matching algorithm under the node specified preferences to endure a stable IoT node pairing. We studied the performance of the proposed matching algorithm through simulation. The simulation results show the higher utility gain of the node pairs through refined matching algorithm over greedy approach.
