This concept is partially overlaping with my concept for the IoT platform for the world of intelligent sensors i.e. network sensors Concept based on IIoT / IoT EDGE Cloud (VPS servers) for the devices operating in the EDGE.
Well , the fog is FOG, there is nothing big we can do there. EDGE Cloud – Main Cloud road is my solution first , then take FOG solution concept after.
Sensors will talking over EDGE Clud with proxy (main) Cloud just for underground additional analitycs and learning for AI, for the future, for the on line reacts/behaviour. There is inter Edge and inter IoT (sensor) specific protocol I am designing for that.
So, in Your concept, is there any specific protocol for inter FOG communication for IoTs ?
(Please, sorry I did not read all Your papers about this item yet?)
