StepsAlgorithm-1 // Pseudo-Code for the DAPA in Fog layers
1Input : RSSI, Distance Measurements
2Output : Distributed Fogs
3Start :
3Measure the RSSI and Distance using Equation(1) and (2)
4If (RSSI > Threshold (By thumb Rule) && Distance< Thersold)
5    Shortest Distance detected
6      Distribute the Fogs near the IoT Nodes
