    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to perform remote monitoring are disclosed. Some example methods include adjusting an image capture rate at which an image sensor captures images based on a difference image containing differences between a first image of a first set of objects and a second image of a second set of objects. Example methods also include reducing a file size of the difference image using an edge detection technique and prioritizing one or more of a set of frames based on an amount of information contained in the frames. The frames are subdivisions of the image. In further example methods, the first image is taken at a first time and the second image is taken at a second, later time, and the method includes subtracting the first image from the second image to generate the difference image.

    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and devices which perform automatic selection of an application-layer communication protocol based upon one or more communication characteristics of the sending application and one or more characteristics of the network connection between the sending device and the recipient. The selection of which protocol to use may be made on a message-by-message basis, periodically at various intervals (e.g., every predetermined time period), once upon application initialization, or the like. By dynamically selecting an application-layer communications protocol, an application may leverage the advantages of a specific protocol given the communication characteristics of the application and characteristics of the network connection at that time.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling message schema and size for internet-of-things (IoT) devices is provided. An exemplary method includes determining if a cost function for a new schema and message size combination is less than the cost function of a current schema and message size combination by calculating the cost function for each of a plurality of schema and message size combinations, and determining if the cost function for one of the plurality of schema and message size combinations is lower than a current schema and message size combination.
