Abstract: Examples include receiving determining a leader Internet of Things (IoT) device in a region, sending an instructions update to the leader IoT device, and sending an update token to a number of secondary IoT devices in the region. The update token comprises information for the secondary IoT devices to receive the instructions update from the leader IoT device. The leader IoT device is selected based on which of configurations of a plurality of IoT devices in the region fulfills a target capability.

Abstract: Methods and systems for enhanced data reliability for sensor devices, such as Internet of Things (IoT) sensors can include a first set of sensor devices (e.g., primary sensors) for collecting data in accordance with an application program. A second set of sensor devices (peer sensors) can be enabled for collecting supplemental data. Each of the sensor devices in the second set of sensor devices corresponds to one of the sensor devices in the first set of sensor devices. After receiving data from a selected sensor device of the set of first sensor devices and determining that the received data triggers a notification for a critical event, a second sensor of the second set of sensor devices can be interrogated to confirm the critical event. The event is confirmed by a convergence of data from the selected sensor device and the supplemental data from the second sensor device.
