Abstract
In one aspect, a method performed by a network node for predicting a probability of state change of a node (e.g., a fog node) in a network is provided. The network node determines a set of weights based on attributes of the node. The network node estimates the probability of state change of the node using the determined set of weights and a set of one or more attribute values related to the node where determining the set of weights includes maximizing an evaluation value associated to the node.
