Abstract
A first device in a group of devices is assigned a role of operating as an elected leader node for the group of devices. The elected leader node determines that a sensor entity of a sensor entity type is associated with one device in the group of communication devices. The elected leader node creates a token and associates the token with the sensor entity. The elected leader node also assigns ownership for the token to one device based on the device being associated with the sensor entity and further based on one or more of: at least one incident allocation criterion; at least one sensor entity allocation criterion; and at least one node allocation criterion. One device executes at least one predefined sensor entity rule associated with the sensor resource type based on ownership of the token assigned to the sensor entity.
