Patent attributes
The disclosure describes techniques for generating device recommendations. The techniques include registering a plurality of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in a social IoT network, where each device performs one or more tasks and the one or more tasks include a first task. The techniques include periodically receiving, with the social IoT network, a work profile from one or more of the registered devices. The work profile includes device information associated with the one or more device tasks performed by the respective registered device. The techniques include grouping devices performing the first task into groups of similar devices, identifying, based on the device information in the work profile received from one or more of the registered devices, at least one device from the group of devices for which recommendations are to be provided, generating the recommendations for the identified device, and providing the recommendations for the identified device.
