    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage media associated with an IoT gateway are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus (such as an IoT gateway) for communicatively coupling a plurality of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices of an IoT network to each other, and to an enterprise or public network, may comprise: first networking circuitry to communicatively couple the apparatus with the plurality of the IoT (smart) devices of the IoT network; second networking circuitry to communicatively couple the apparatus with the enterprise or public network; routing circuitry coupled to the first and second networking circuitries; and code table building circuitry coupled with the first and second networking circuitries to dynamically provide a code table to the IoT (smart) devices to use to exchange messages with each other, or with other devices on the enterprise or public network, based at least in part on words in the messages exchanged.

    Abstract: In embodiments, Internet of Things (IoT) devices may be organized according to an IoT device hierarchy, which may include parent and/or child associations between resources associated with IoT devices and/or with groupings of IoT devices. IoT devices wishing to support an IoT device hierarchy may utilize an extended IoT device resource model which provides for IoT device hierarchy information and interfaces to be provided by supporting IoT devices. A supporting resource may have one or more parent properties and/or child properties which may identify, respectively, parent or child resources which are associated with the resource. In various embodiments, these parent properties and/or child properties may include uniform resource identifiers (URI). A supporting resource may also identify an interface type for a hierarchical access interface, through which one or more descendant resources may be accessed through a single command. Other embodiments may be descried and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to identify and manage IoT protocols and associated devices. An example apparatus includes a gateway device to communicate according to a first protocol. The example gateway device includes a plugin agent to discover a first device and probe the first device to gather data regarding a protocol of the first device. The example plugin agent is to transmit the gathered data to a plugin manager to determine whether the first device is to communicate via the first protocol, and, when the first device is unable to communicate via the first protocol, determine a plugin for the gateway device to enable the gateway device to communicate with the first device, the plugin agent to provision the plugin for the gateway device with respect to the first device.

    Abstract: System and techniques for device discovery described herein. A gateway device may initiate discovery in a self-organizing network attached to a first network interface of the gateway device. The gateway device may include a second network interface attached to a network that has a discovery protocol different than that of the self-organizing network. A reply from a node in the self-organizing network may be received in response to the discovery. A device class may be extracted from the reply. Here, the device class corresponds to the node and is selected from a set of device classes defined for the network. A mapping between the second network interface and the first network interface based on the device class may be registered. A response to a query from the network may be completed using the mapping.

    Abstract: System and techniques for radio resource scheduling are described herein. A network request may be received at a first network interface of a gateway device. Here, the network request includes an information request to multiple devices connected to the gateway device via a second network interface. A transmission schedule may be created for the multiple devices that is contention free. The transmission schedule may be propagated to the multiple devices. Information responsive to the information request may be received from the multiple devices according to the transmission schedule. The network request may be fulfilled with the information.
