Are there standard techniques/libraries that are used to implement IoT? How does a monitoring-and-control component setup a messaging connection to a monitoring device that might be tethered to a cellular network? Say that I am working in Python but the question also applies to C/C++.

Your question is quite broad but...

MQTT is the protocol that is widely used in the context that you describe. It has many features like :

  • Send messages without or with ACK
  • Payload Encryption
  • Widely supported in the Open Source world
  • There is libraries for many programing languages

And there is many other reasons...
