Uses information from both application and network layers to select communication routes, enabling routing decisions that better reflect application requirements and real-time network conditions.

‍

Application data in IoT networks may be routed inefficiently when application requirements and network conditions are considered separately, potentially resulting in suboptimal communication links and reduced network performance.

‍

Provides an intelligent IoT data-routing mechanism that evaluates information from both application and network layers across devices and gateways to identify and select an optimised communication link for application-data transmission.

‍

Uses cross-layer coordination between application and network layers to select communication routes based on both application requirements and real-time network conditions, improving the efficiency of IoT data routing.
