The current trends in the Internet of Things (IoT) show a growing need for flexibility. Conventional IoT applications assumed homogeneous networks with static devices, while future applications are envisioning heterogeneous environments with different radio hardware, where nodes may or must move. This means that IoT networks will experience topological changes, deriving from variations in the surrounding environment, such as electromagnetic noise, physical conditions (temperature, humidity, pressure), and moving entities (people, vehicles, animals, furniture, objects). Under unreliable constrained wireless networks for IoT networks, messages may frequently be lost or delayed. Consequently, as constrained devices move around different wireless networks, its connectivity may be frequently disrupted, and power can be drained rapidly due to the massive amount of signaling messages for network discovery. This can in turn result in the loss of important sensing data or imposing large delays for real-time applications such as healthcare monitoring and factory automation. Moreover, existence of a heterogeneous network will increase probability of interference for devices operating in same frequency band. Beside physical mobility, interference will also impose topological changes (known as logical mobility) in such a heterogeneous IoT network, which in turn will degrade network performance. Dealing with the dynamics of these heterogeneous IoT networks, involving mobile entities extremely resource-constrained is very challenging. The Fog Computing paradigm is an architectural enabler for designing more flexible networks. Fog computing extends the Cloud-like services to the network edge to deal with IoT devices locally to carry out most of the storage, communication, control, configuration and management.
