(3) What is the role of adaptation layer in 6LoWPAN architecture?
(4) How does 6LoWPAN handle packet fragmentation and reassembly?
(5) How does 6LoWPAN integrate with other IoT protocols in a complete stack?

(6) How does 6TiSCH combine IPv6 networking with the Time-Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) MAC layer?
(7) What are the mechanisms 6TiSCH uses to ensure deterministic communication?
(8) How does the 6TiSCH scheduling function work to allocate timeslots?
(9) What is the minimal 6TiSCH configuration and when is it applied?
(10) How does 6TiSCH address reliability and latency requirements in industrial IoT applications?
(11) What are the key di erences between 6TiSCH and traditional 6LoWPAN deployments?
RPL (Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks)
