Competition: Controlled Replication for Higher Reliability and Predictability in Industrial IoT Networks.

Applications such as the smart grid or vehicle automation require deterministic transmissions with properties such as on-time data deliveries and end-to-end reliability close to 100%. We introduce a novel mechanism based on BIERTE, a scheme in which parallel transmissions over several paths are scheduled, while promiscuous listening between the paths enables nodes to possibly overhear transmissions on the other. We propose an implementation of this new approach for the dependability competition.
