Cover Story: The Internet of Things is fostering the integration and interoperation of novel technologies at different abstraction levels, from the Edge Computing to the Cloud and IoT Data Analytics. With this evolution process, the issue of efficient remote reprogramming in Edge and Extreme Edge deployments becomes accentuated, as the number/diversity of embedded sensing platforms grows. To benefit from in-field dynamic collaboration of heterogeneous devices, a new distributed code dissemination strategy for node reprogramming is proposed, to efficiently support reconfiguration and runtime optimization of sensor devices, based on a partial reprogramming engine integrated into a modular hardware architecture.
