Round robin assignment based communication system
View Patent ↗A round robin assignment based communication system may include a dynamic subscriber identification module (SIM) provisioning module to obtain and selectively assign a phone number to a device from a predetermined number of devices based on a round robin assignment technique to allow each device to communicate upon assignment of the phone number. A machine-to-machine (M2M) application module may determine priority of the phone number assignment to the devices.
1. A round robin assignment based communication system comprising:
a dynamic subscriber identification module (SIM) provisioning module, executed by a processor, to obtain and selectively assign a phone number to a device from a predetermined number of devices based on a round robin assignment technique to allow each device to communicate upon assignment of the phone number; and
a machine-to-machine (M2M) application module to determine priority of the phone number assignment to the devices.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the devices communicate based on cellular communication.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the phone number is a routable phone number.
4. The system of claim 3 , wherein use of the routable phone number permits incoming and outgoing communication, respectively, to and from the devices.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the phone number is assigned to a selected number of the devices that require communication from a total number of the devices that includes devices that do not require communication based on the round robin assignment technique.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the priority of the phone number assignment is based on business logic related to communications by at least one device.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the priority of the phone number assignment is weighted according to business logic related to communications by at least one device.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the round robin assignment technique is based a priority that is one of randomly determined and weighted according to business logic related to communications by at least one device.
9. A method for round robin assignment based communication, the method comprising:
obtaining and selectively assigning, by a processor, a phone number to a device from a predetermined number of devices based on a round robin assignment technique to allow each device to communicate upon assignment of the phone number; and
determining priority of the phone number assignment to the devices.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the devices communicate based on cellular communication.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the phone number is a routable phone number.
12. The method of claim 9 , further comprising assigning the phone number to a selected number of the devices that require communication from a total number of the devices that includes devices that do not require communication based on the round robin assignment technique.
13. The method of claim 9 , further comprising basing the priority of the phone number assignment on business logic related to communications by at least one device.
14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the priority of the phone number assignment is weighted according to business logic related to communications by at least one device.
15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing machine readable instructions, that when executed by a computer system, perform a method for database archiving performance benefit determination, the method comprising:
obtaining and selectively assigning, by a processor, a phone number to a device from a predetermined number of devices based on a round robin assignment technique to allow each device to communicate upon assignment of the phone number; and
determining priority of the phone number assignment to the devices.
