    Abstract: In various embodiments, an IoT device may provide selective reporting of collected data measurements. The IoT device may report the data via a network connection to an aggregator device. The IoT device may detect when the network connection has been interrupted, during which messages containing measurements may be cached. Later, when the network connection has been restored, the IoT device may “replay” the cached messages. The IoT device may selectively report cached messages based on an entropy analysis which may detect which measurements exhibit a higher entropy. The entropy analysis may determine which measurements show a higher rate of change or which have a value outside of a set of thresholds. The IoT device may select measurements based on a history of measurements obtained by the IoT device. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Technologies for managing network traffic through heterogeneous fog network segments of a fog network include a fog node deployed in a fog network segment. The fog node is configured to receive a fog frame that includes control instructions. The fog node is further configured to perform a route selection action to identify a preferred target fog node based on the control instructions, perform action(s) based on the control instructions and network characteristic(s) of the fog network segment relative to corresponding network characteristic(s) of the different fog network segment, and generate updated control instructions based on at least one network characteristic of the different fog network segment. Additionally, the fog node is configured to replace the original control instructions of the received fog frame with the updated control instructions and transmit the received fog frame with the updated control instructions to the preferred target fog node. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: An Internet of Things (IoT) network includes an IoT device with a communicator to send a communication including egress frame, protocol library builder to determine available protocols, frame analyzer to analyze an ingress frame, and frame builder to build the egress frame from the ingress frame. An IoT network includes an IoT device with network discoverer to identify available parallel communication channels between IoT device and target device, payload, payload fragmenter/packager to fragment the payload into sub-objects for transmission, and packet communicator to send sub-objects to the target device over parallel communication channels. An IoT network includes a plurality of IoT devices, which each include a communication channel to an upstream device, a network link to another one of the plurality of IoT devices, a hash calculator to identify a neighbor IoT device, and a communicator to send out a message to the neighbor IoT device.
