FESP: Fast and Energy Efficient Service Provisioning in 6LoWPAN

In this paper we propose a fast and energy efficient service provisioning approach. In our work, we focus towards the management of already discovered services. We assert that if the sensor nodes share the important service information among each other, then the service re-discovery can be reduced at greater extent. Hence a significant amount of Service Discover (SD) time and the network energy cost can be saved. We propose the threshold-based technique by devising the formula that determines the importance of the service, and a mechanism of sharing that service through the proposed scheme. We also discuss the performance of different SD protocols with and without implementation of proposed Fast and Energy Efficient Service Provisioning (FESP).
