This paper introduces a novel Reinforcement Learning-Based Hybrid Validation Protocol (RL-CC) that revolutionizes conflict resolution for time-sensitive IoT transactions through adaptive edge-cloud coordination. Efficient transaction management in sensor-based systems is crucial for maintaining data integrity and ensuring timely execution within the constraints of temporal validity. Our key innovation lies in dynamically learning optimal scheduling policies that minimize transaction aborts while maximizing throughput under varying workload conditions.
