Abstract

Technologies for scheduling time-sensitive cyclical network traffic in real-time include an internet-of-things (IoT) device that includes at least one sensor for collecting sensor data. The IoT device is configured to store the collected sensor data in a data buffer, allocate a packet descriptor for the sensor data, and populate the allocated packet descriptor with a cyclic data port pointer indicative of a location of the data buffer. The IoT device is additionally configured to queue the packet descriptor into a media access control (MAC) unit transmit direct memory access (DMA) of the IoT device, fetch the sensor data, and packetize the fetched data to form a network packet. Further, the IoT device is configured to transmit the network packet to a target computing device based on a launch time, update the launch time, and requeue the packet descriptor into the MAC unit transmit DMA. Other embodiments are described herein.
