The objects of Internet of Things would empower by embedded gadgets whose limited sources has to be managed effectively. IoT usually means a network of devices connected through wireless network and interacts through internet. Resource management, particularly energy management, becomes a serious problem while devising IoT gadgets. Numerous researchers stated that routing and clustering were energy effectual solutions for optimum resource management in IoT setting. This study introduces a Modified Flower Pollination Algorithm based Resource Management (MFPA-RMM) model for Clustered IoT Environment. The presented MFPA-RMM model majorly focuses on the clustering the IoT devices in such a way that the resources are proficiently managed. The MFPA-RMM model is derived based on the fuzzy c-means (FCM) with FPA. The FPA approach is called heuristic algorithm has benefits of global optimization and faster convergence, therefore it was incorporated to FCM system for resolving the advantages and disadvantages of FCM method termed FCM-FPA mechanism. The result analysis of the MFPA-RMM model reported the enhanced performance of the MFPA-RMM model over other well-known techniques like LEACH and TEEN. 2022 2022 97 106 10.54216/IJWAC.040205 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/20/show/1249
