Methods and apparatus for use in an Internet-of-Things (IoT) system are presented. A method performed by a network node in an Internet-of-Things (IoT) system is presenting in an example embodiment. According to this example method, a network node or a plurality of network nodes working collaboratively can obtain data captured by one or more IoT devices and associated with an interactive activity with which different participants interface at different sites. Furthermore, the network node(s) may determine a state of the activity by applying the data to a data model. Moreover, the network node(s) can, in an example method, provide one or more feedback signals to feedback devices associated with one or more of the different sites to actualize the determined state of the activity, where at least two of the different sites have disparate, meaning non-identical, feedback device sets.

Methods and apparatus for resource optimization in Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks are presented. For instance, the disclosure presents an example method executed by a network node () in an IoT system (). In some embodiments, the example method includes predicting () a likelihood that a future event will be detected by one or more IoT devices () in the IoT system () under different potential resource allocation and IoT device settings. The predicting () is conducted subject to resource availability constraints in some examples. In addition, the example method includes, based on the predicting (), adapting () at least one of resource allocation and IoT device settings in the IoT system () for the future time. This adapting () is conducted such that the likelihood that the future event will be detected is maximized under the resource availability constraints according to a target optimization function.
