About the Conference :
The International IoT Conference is IFIP’s flagship event for research, innovation, and application of the Internet of Things. Now in its 8th year, it will be held at the Osmania University. It is jointly co-hosted by three premier Indian universities, namely, Osmania University, JNTU Hyderabad, and NIT Warangal. As IoT is by nature multidisciplinary, the conference covers a wide range of topics.
The areas of interest range from communication network protocols and embedded systems to data analysis and machine learning algorithms, as well as social, legal, ethical, and economic aspects.
All these aspects aim to enable a wide range of services in areas such as e-health, mobility, energy, manufacturing, smart cities, and agriculture, to name but a few. IoT deployment must also consider security, privacy, and the social aspects of networking, which must be studied in detail to guarantee real added value for IoT users.
IFIP IoT conferences address this wide range of topics. Papers present technical advances, research into major issues, innovations, results from pilot sites and policy issues. Perspectives come from researchers, users, user organizations, the ICT industry, authorities, and regulators.
Call for papers:
IoT is revolutionizing the way we live! Experts and organizations are addressing the topic in policy statements, papers and conferences. There are many aspects to be looked at when talking about IoT.
Earlier developments were quite focused on the lower-level aspects such as interfacing, communication protocols and standards, base platforms, energy efficiency and energy harvesting, smart devices and smart sensors, etc. With the exponential growth of the number of devices and sensors connected to Internet and their increasing levels of embedded intelligence, other relevant challenges emerge, including organizational structures, collaborative cyber-physical ecosystems, end-user development, self-organizing systems, distributed decision making, collective adaptive and cognitive systems, behavioural models, systems resilience, handling big data, etc.
The IFIP International Internet of Things (IoT) Conference addresses this wide variety of aspects. Papers will show technical advancements, research on major questions, policy issues, and so on. Perspectives will be from the people and organizations involved (users, user organizations, ICT professionals, ICT industry, authorities / regulators) and from the phase of an IoT system or component (development, production / manufacturing, implementation, maintenance, management, use).
