RelIoT: Reliability Simulator for IoT Networks.

The next era of the Internet of Things (IoT) calls for a large-scale deployment of edge devices to meet the growing demands of applications such as smart cities, smart grids, and environmental monitoring. From low-power sensors to multi-core platforms, IoT devices are prone to failures due to the reliability degradation of electronic circuits, batteries, and other components. As the network of heterogeneous devices expands, maintenance costs due to system failures become unmanageable, making reliability a major concern. Prior work has shown the importance of automated reliability management for meeting lifetime goals for individual devices. However, state-of-the-art network simulators do not provide reliability modeling capabilities for IoT networks.
