According to an aspect of the embodiments of the present invention, an information processing method is provided, and optionally, as an optional implementation manner, the information processing method may be applied to, but is not limited to, an environment as shown in fig. 1. The user device 102-1 may include, but is not limited to, a display 108-1, a processor 106-1 and a memory 104-1, and similarly, the user device 102-2 may include, but is not limited to, a display 108-2, a processor 106-2 and a memory 104-2. By way of further illustration, the user device 102-1 may be, but is not limited to being, at least two smart devices (e.g., device a, device B, and device C) under a control target network.

The specific process comprises the following steps:

step S102, the user equipment 102-1 obtains control information on a man-machine interaction screen corresponding to the equipment list, wherein the control information is supposed to be used for indicating the starting of the control equipment C;

step S104-S106, the user device 102-1 sends control information to the server 112 via the network 110;

step S108, the server 112 processes the control information to generate a control instruction, where the control instruction is used to instruct the device C in the control target network to start;

step S120, the server 112 processes the status information to generate result information, and stores the result information in the database 114, wherein the result information includes the status information and the execution result of the user equipment 102-2 based on the control instruction;

step S122-S124, the server 112 sends the result information to the user device 102-1 through the network 110, and the user device 102-1 displays the result information in the display 108-1 and stores the result information in the memory 104-1.

Optionally, as an optional implementation manner, as shown in fig. 2, the information processing method includes:

s202, receiving a control instruction sent by a target gateway of a target network, wherein the target network comprises at least two node devices, and the control instruction is used for indicating the target node devices in the target network to execute a target event;

s204, responding to the control instruction, controlling the target node equipment to execute the target event, and acquiring first state information of the target node equipment after the target event is executed;

s206, comparing the first state information with second state information of the target node equipment before the target event is executed, and acquiring a first comparison result;

and S208, under the condition that the first comparison result indicates that the first state information and the second state information are different, sending the second state information to the target gateway and other node equipment except the target node equipment in the target network.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the target network may be, but is not limited to, be used to provide shared data and resources for at least two intelligent devices connected under the target network, and may also be, but is not limited to, be used to implement functions of collecting, exchanging, transmitting, and processing data. The target network may include, but is not limited to, at least one of: local area networks, metropolitan area networks, wide area networks, personal area networks, wired networks, wireless networks, fiber optic networks, bluetooth mesh (mesh) networks, and the like, and specifically, for example, a bluetooth mesh network is taken as an example, and optionally, the bluetooth mesh network is not a radio technology, but a connection technology that can be used to construct a many-to-many network including a large number of bluetooth devices or nodes. In the bluetooth mesh network, a message sent by one node can be transmitted between nodes until it reaches its destination. This essentially puts the communication out of the transmission range of point-to-point direct broadcasting. The message copies can be transmitted through a plurality of paths in the network without setting special rules, thereby bringing high reliability to the network.

By way of further example, an alternative bluetooth mesh architecture includes an access layer (access layer) and a network layer (network layer), where the access layer (access layer) is responsible for formatting application data, defining and controlling encryption and decryption processes performed in an upper transport layer, and verifying whether the received data is suitable for the correct network and application before forwarding the data to the protocol stack. The network layer defines various message address types and network message formats, and relay and proxy behaviors are implemented through the network layer, and meanwhile, the communication safety in the network is guaranteed.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the information processing method may be applied to a scene in a bluetooth mesh (mesh) network, and optionally, based on a characteristic of "network flooding" specific to the bluetooth mesh network, a "responsibility chain mode" is adopted, that is: each node generates an event after the state is changed and sends the event to the whole mesh network in a broadcasting mode, and each node monitors the mesh network in real time to consume the event. Based on the mode of 'responsibility chain mode', a quite reliable network is guaranteed to be constructed, bandwidth is reduced, and time consumption is saved. Optionally, the information processing method may also be but is not limited to an access layer (i.e., a mesh application layer broadcast data transceiving mechanism) based on a bluetooth mesh network, each common node is both an event sending party and an event receiving party, and each node device may maintain an online state of a mesh device in the current mesh network.

In addition, it should be noted that the information processing method may be, but is not limited to, have a premise that: all mesh nodes need to use the same set of netkey and appkey for the following reasons:

the safety guarantee of the Bluetooth mesh network message comes from the encryption and verification of a network key (NetKey) and an application key (AppKey) to the message.

And the NetKey is used for network layer communication. Assuming that the bluetooth mesh network has no subnet, all communications within the mesh network use the same network key.

AppKey is used for data of an application. Some nodes in the network have specific applications and restrict access to some potentially sensitive data according to the needs of the application (event synchronization is a generic application).

In an event notification mechanism, the same NetKey is used for ensuring the consistency of network keys; the same AppKey is used for ensuring the synchronous application of events among the devices.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the control instruction may be, but is not limited to, triggered and obtained by a target terminal or a target device, where the target terminal or the target device may be, but is not limited to, establishing an association relationship with a target network in advance, where the association relationship is used to indicate that all or part of node devices in the target network may be controlled by the target terminal or the target device, and state information of all or part of node devices in the target network may be viewed by the target terminal or the target device. Optionally, the status information may be, but is not limited to, at least one of the following information representing the node device: attribute information, data information, heartbeat information, wherein the data information may include, but is not limited to, at least one of: the device Element address, the on, off, up, and down time stamps of the node device, and Heartbeat Message (Heartbeat Message) may be, but is not limited to, a Message sent by a sending source to a recipient that allows the recipient to determine if and when the sending source has failed or terminated.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the target event may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: and checking the state information of the target node equipment and controlling the target node equipment to execute the target action. Further optionally, for example, in a case that the target event is to view the state information of the node device, in a normal case, the state information of the target node device is not changed, and thus the target node device does not need to send the state information to other node devices in the target network; however, when the target event is to control the target node device to execute the target action and the state information of the target node device changes, the target node device needs to send the updated state information to other node devices in the target network to update the state information before updating, which is cached by other node devices in the target network, so that the technical purpose that a user can complete information acquisition of all node devices in the target network by controlling any node device in the target network is achieved.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the target gateway may be, but is not limited to, a network management device-like role (provider) in the target network, and may be, but is not limited to, a computer system or a device that provides a data conversion service between multiple networks or multiple node devices. For example, a data conversion service is provided for the target terminal and the target node device in the target network, so as to convert the control command triggered on the target terminal into a data format recognizable by the target network.

It should be noted that the information processing method may be applied to all node devices of the target network, and the target node device herein is only for illustration and is not limited in any way. For example, when the state information of another node device in the target network is changed, the node device may also transmit the changed state information to another node device outside the node device and inside the target node in the target network. Optionally, all the node devices in the target network respectively cache state information of all the node devices in the target network, and after receiving the changed state information, respectively update the corresponding stored state information before updating, so as to achieve an effect of improving timeliness of the node device information in the target network.

For further example, optionally, as shown in fig. 3, the target network includes a target node device 302, a first node device 304, and a second node device 306, and assuming that the state information of the target node device 302 is changed, the target node device 302 will send (broadcast) the changed state information to the first node device 304 and the second node device 306, respectively, and after receiving the changed state information of the target node device 302, the first node device 304 and the second node device 306 update the cached state information of the target node device 302 respectively.

It should be noted that, a control instruction sent by a target gateway of a target network is received, where the target network includes at least two node devices, and the control instruction is used to instruct a target node device in the target network to execute a target event; responding to the control instruction, controlling the target node equipment to execute the target event, and acquiring first state information of the target node equipment after the target event is executed; comparing the first state information with second state information of the target node equipment before the target event is executed, and acquiring a first comparison result; and under the condition that the first comparison result indicates that the first state information and the second state information are different, sending the second state information to the target gateway and other node devices except the target node device in the target network.

For further example, application steps of the information processing method are optional, for example, as shown in fig. 4, in step S402, the target gateway 402 sends a control instruction to the target node device 404; step S404-S406, in the case that the control instruction is an inquiry instruction, the target node device first replies to the backplane, and unicast replies to the status information corresponding to the inquiry instruction of the target gateway 402, and optionally, unicast replies to the source address of the inquiry (which does not cause synchronization of status events in the full target network); in steps S408-S410, in case that the control instruction is an action execution instruction, the target node device may, but is not limited to, unicast the status information returned by the target gateway 402 after the target node device 404 executes the action execution instruction, and then multicast the status information to other node devices (exemplified by the nth node device 406) in the target network except for the target node device 404, or in case that the control instruction is an action execution instruction, the target node device 404 directly multicast the status information after the target node device 404 executes the action execution instruction to the target gateway 402 and other node devices except for the target node device 404. This is by way of example only and not intended to be limiting.

Optionally, in this embodiment, the target node device sends the changed state information to other node devices in the target network except the target node device, and may also be but not limited to target node device self-checking state information at a target end time of a target period, where a target period starts at a target start time and ends at a target end time, a time interval between the target start time and the target end time is a target duration, and assuming that at the target end time, the target node device self-checks the state information, and a self-checking result indicates that the state information is changed, the target node device sends the changed state information to other node devices in the target network except the target node device. Optionally, in this scenario, the status information may be, but is not limited to, heartbeat information.

For further example, based on the scenario shown in fig. 4, the following specific steps are continued with reference to fig. 5 as an example: step S502, the target node device 404 periodically self-checks the state information; step S504, under the condition that the self-checking result indicates that the state information changes, the state information is broadcasted in a multi-path mode to the target gateway 402 and other node equipment except the target node equipment 404 under the target network; step S506, taking the nth node device 406 as an example, the nth node device 406 updates the cached state information of the target node device 404; in step S508, when the nth node device 406 ends in the target period and does not receive the status information of the target node device 404, it considers that the target node device 404 is inactivated, and generates an inactivation timestamp corresponding to the inactivation of the target node device 404, where the inactivated node device may, but is not limited to, indicate that the node device is offline or fails.

Optionally, in this embodiment, with the information processing method, a user can obtain state information of any other node device in the target network through any node device in the target network, for example, assuming that there are N node devices in the target network, after the user connects to the target node device through a mobile phone (using a bluetooth low energy GATT service to perform data transceiving interaction with the target network), the mobile phone may actively query a cache list of the target node device (that is, N groups of node device information maintained in each device before). The target node devices are only examples, and any one node device directly connected to the mobile phone can acquire all device state information in all target networks within millisecond time by using the information processing method.

According to the embodiment provided by the application, a control instruction sent by a target gateway of a target network is received, wherein the target network comprises at least two node devices, and the control instruction is used for indicating the target node devices in the target network to execute a target event; responding to the control instruction, controlling the target node equipment to execute the target event, and acquiring first state information of the target node equipment after the target event is executed; comparing the first state information with second state information of the target node equipment before the target event is executed, and acquiring a first comparison result; under the condition that the first comparison result indicates that the first state information and the second state information are different, the second state information is sent to the target gateway and other node equipment except the target node equipment in the target network, and when the state information of the target node equipment changes, the changed state information is sent to all node equipment in the network, so that the purpose of intercommunication and sharing of the state information among all the node equipment in the network is achieved, the state information of all the node equipment can be obtained through any node equipment in the network, and the effect of improving the information processing efficiency is achieved.

As an optional scheme, in response to the control instruction, controlling the target node device to execute the target event includes:

s1, responding to a control instruction, and sequentially acquiring event processing information of other node equipment in a target network, wherein the event processing information comprises a processing result of each node equipment on a target event;

and S2, controlling the target node equipment to execute the target event based on the event processing information.

It should be noted that, in response to the control instruction, event processing information of other node devices in the target network is sequentially obtained, where the event processing information includes a processing result of each node device on the target event; and controlling the target node equipment to execute the target event based on the event processing information.

For further example, the processing flow of the event processing information may be as shown in fig. 6, where all node devices in the target network sequentially select the target time 602, and the selection includes event consumption, non-processing, or continued processing of a next node device, where the event consumption may be, but is not limited to, indicating that the current node device completes processing the target event 602, the non-processing may be, but is not limited to, indicating that the current node device does not process the target event 602 at all, and the continued processing of the next node device may be, but is not limited to, indicating that the current node device processes but does not process the target time 602; optionally, if any node device consumes the target event 602, the target event 602 is directly determined to be processed and directly ended without being transmitted to the next node device, and then the event processing information 604 is output when the target event 602 is processed, where the event processing information 604 may include, but is not limited to, node device information for processing or consuming the target event 602; optionally, after traversing all node devices in the target network, the exception function 606 is generated in a case where the target event 602 is not processed yet.

According to the embodiment provided by the application, the event processing information of other node devices in the target network is sequentially acquired in response to the control instruction, wherein the event processing information comprises the processing result of each node device on the target event; and based on the event processing information, the target node equipment is controlled to execute the target event, so that the aim of sequentially processing the information is fulfilled, and the effect of improving the integrity of information processing is realized.

As an optional scheme, based on the event processing information, the target node device is controlled to execute the target event, where the target event includes at least one of:

s1, under the condition that event processing information indicates that first node equipment in a target network completes processing of a target event, the first node equipment is used as target node equipment;

and S2, under the condition that the event processing information indicates that the first node device and the second node device in the target network complete the processing of the target event, taking the first node device and the second node device as target node devices.

Alternatively, the target event may be processed by, but not limited to, a handler, where the handler may be, but not limited to, processing asynchronous messages, after a message is sent, the handler first enters a message queue, a function sending the message immediately returns, and another part takes out messages one by one in the message queue, and then processes the message, that is, the sending of the message and the receiving of the message are not synchronous processing.

It should be noted that, in the case that the event processing information indicates that the first node device in the target network completes processing of the target event, the first node device is taken as the target node device; and under the condition that the event processing information indicates that the first node device and the second node device in the target network complete the processing of the target event, taking the first node device and the second node device as the target node devices.

To further illustrate, optionally, for example, as shown in fig. 6, assuming that event processing information 604 indicates that both the first node device and the second node device are involved in consumption of target event 602, the target node device includes the first node device and the second node device; assuming again that event processing information 604 indicates that only the first node device is participating in the consumption of target event 602, the target node device comprises the first node device.

According to the embodiment provided by the application, under the condition that the event processing information indicates that the first node equipment in the target network completes the processing of the target event, the first node equipment is taken as the target node equipment; under the condition that the event processing information indicates that the first node device and the second node device in the target network complete the processing of the target event, the first node device and the second node device are used as the target node devices, so that the purpose of accurately selecting the target node devices is achieved, and the effect of improving the selection accuracy of the target node devices is achieved.

As an optional scheme, after sending the second status information to the target gateway, the method further includes:

s1, updating a current timestamp of target node equipment, and acquiring third state information of the target node equipment at a target time after a first duration, wherein the target time is behind the current timestamp;

s2, comparing the second state information with the third state information to obtain a second comparison result;

and S3, under the condition that the second comparison result indicates that the second state information and the third state information are the same, sending heartbeat information of the target node equipment to the target gateway and other node equipment except the target node equipment in the target network, wherein the heartbeat information is used for determining whether the node equipment is alive-keeping or not.

It should be noted that, the current timestamp of the target node device is updated, and the third state information of the target node device at the target time is acquired after the first duration, where the target time is after the current timestamp; comparing the second state information with the third state information to obtain a second comparison result; and under the condition that the second comparison result indicates that the second state information and the third state information are the same, sending heartbeat information of the target node equipment to the target gateway and other node equipment except the target node equipment in the target network, wherein the heartbeat information is used for determining whether the node equipment is alive-keeping.

For further example, optionally, as shown in fig. 7, the node device in the target network monitors broadcast data in the target network, and when it is monitored that the state information of the node device changes or the node device is offline, the state information of the node device may be synchronized to the target terminal through the GATT service path. It is assumed that if the current node device does not establish a connection with the target terminal, the changed data can be cached and the active query of the target terminal is waited through the GATT service. Optionally, if there is still available cache currently, the state information of the node device may be continuously judged, otherwise, the frame processing is abandoned; if the node equipment judges that the state information changes and the current equipment is connected with the node equipment, actively synchronizing the node state information to the target terminal through a channel of the node equipment; otherwise, passively waiting for the active query after the target terminal is connected. The specific process is as follows:

step S702, receiving data;

step S704, determining whether the broadcast data is broadcast data, if not, executing step S706, and if yes, executing step S708;

step S706, conventional service processing;

step S708, determining whether a traversal source address exists in the member list, if not, performing step S710, and if so, performing step S714;

step S710, querying whether there is an available cache, if not, continuing to perform step S702, and if so, performing step S712;

step S712, creating a new member;

step S714, updating the member list;

step S716, updating node information;

step S718, updating a node heartbeat timestamp/online mark;

step S720, if the node equipment is connected, actively synchronizing the state information of the node equipment to the uSDK through the node equipment channel.

Optionally, based on the scenario shown in fig. 7, for example, as shown in fig. 8, after it is determined that a node in the cache list is offline, the current node may actively synchronize node offline state information to the target terminal through a channel of the node device; even if no node device is connected, the current node device releases the cache resource of the corresponding node device after the line is judged so as to provide a subsequent new node device for state updating, and the method comprises the following specific steps:

step S802, acquiring a timing task;

step S804, traverse the member list;

step 806, judging whether the node equipment is offline or not according to the heartbeat timestamp, if yes, executing step 808, and if not, executing step 804;

step S808, updating an off-line mark;

step S810, if node equipment is connected, actively synchronizing offline equipment of the node equipment to the uSDK through a node equipment channel;
