Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are disclosed for a consensus-based node retirement in a mesh network. An example system includes: a mesh network comprising a plurality of nodes, including a first node, a second node, and a mesh controller; a processor; and memory. The memory may store instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, may cause the mesh controller to: distribute a mesh membership contract to the mesh network, the mesh membership contract comprising membership rules; receive, from the first node, based on a performance status of the second node, an identification of a deficiency in a performance metric of the second node, wherein the deficiency is based on a failure of the second node to satisfy a membership rule; and remove, after a consensus by the mesh network for the identified deficiency, one or more capabilities of the second node from the mesh network.
