Hello all,

We have just submitted a new draft
(draft-ji-traffic-aware-objective-function-00)
describing an Traffic-aware objective function and the extension to the DAG
Metric Container.

This extension aims to help in distributing network traffic load in RPL
networks, so that packet transmission (especially forwarding) duties are
shared more equitably between nodes.
The idea is that by having a more balanced network, we can avoid some nodes
from prematurely exhausting their energy stores.

This draft defines an extension to the DAG Metric Container type, used in
DIO messages, and an Objective Function that utilizes this information in
order to perform parent selection in
a way that avoids overconcentration of child nodes onto parent nodes.

Best,
Aris
