Swarm os control plane: an architecture proposal for heterogeneous and organic networks

Swarm is a heterogeneous distributed collection of cooperating things. It enables an extension of the info-sphere into the physical world. This work presents a framework architecture proposal to the Swarm. Envisioning the Swarm ecosystem, challenges and characteristics were identified and a control plane for the framework was proposed. In order to exercise this framework, a use case was designed and a proof of concept was deployed. The work presents a computational control plane architecture proposition for organic and heterogeneous networks leveraging the Swarm concept.
