INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON THE

INTERNET OF THINGS COMPUTING

AND APPLICATIONS (IoTCA)



IN CONJUNCTION WITH ICDCS2017

ATLANTA, GA, USA | JUNE 5, 2017

****************************************************************

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the latest Internet evolution that
incorporates billions of Internet-connected devices that range from
cameras, sensors, RFIDs, smart phones, and wearables, to smart meters,
vehicles, medication pills, signs and industrial machines. Such IoT things
are often owned by different organizations and people who are deploying and
using them for their own purposes. Federations of such IoT devices
(referred to as IoT things) can also deliver timely and accurate
information that is needed to solve internet-scale problems that have been
too difficult to tackle before.

To realize its enormous potential, IoT must provide IoT solutions for
discovering needed IoT devices, collecting and integrating their data, and
distilling the high value information each application needs. Such IoT
solutions must be capable of filtering, aggregating, correlating, and
contextualising IoT information in real-time, on the move, in the cloud,
and securely and must be capable of introducing data-driven changes to the
physical world.

The IoTCA Workshop solicits paper submissions and aims to bring together
researchers and application developers working on the intersection of IoT
with distributed, cloud, internet, mobile, ambient, semantic, real-time,
secure and privacy-preserving computing. We also aim to explore the
application of novel IoT computing results and describe and assess their
impact. Therefore, in addition to encouraging novel and innovative, even
early stage, unpublished work to be submitted in the research track of this
workshop, we also provide a smart application track and encourage
submissions describing novel IoT applications that aim to solve real wold
problems via any IoT computing technology.

Topics of Interest

****************

Topics of interest in the research track include all aspects of platforms,
architectures, models, designs, implementations, simulations, measurements
and assessments in the following IoT areas (but not necessary limited to
these):

* Description, search, and discovery of IoT devices and their data

* Integration of IoT devices and their data

* Very high velocity data ingestion

* IoT cloud services and resources

* IoT data query, analysis, and visualization

* Real-time IoT data analysis

* IoT device actuation and feedback

* IoT security and privacy

* Mobile sensing and data analysis

* Localisation, personalisation, and contextualisation of IoT data

* Using human sensors in IoT, and in particular analysis social media
posting and crowdsourcing

* Fusion of sensor data with the social media postings

* Information space intersection

* Edge/fog computing services for IoT

* IoT cost models and QoS

Topics of interest in the smart applications track include all aspects of,
but not limited to:

* Smart city services, such as transportation, pollution management, and
disaster management

* Smart grids, such as hybrid power stations and demand side management

* Smart farming, including irrigation, fertilisation, and crop assessment
and recommendation

* Advanced manufacturing, including process automation, inventory
management, and Industry 4.0

Submission

****************

Submission site: Easy Chair (
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iotca2017)

Authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original,
previously unpublished research solutions and/or smart applications not
currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing IoT
state-of-the-art. Papers must be submitted electronically via the link
above. The length of papers must be no more than 6 pages in the IEEE
double-column format (everything including references and ack. should be
included in the 6 pages). The cover page must contain an abstract of about
150 words, name and affiliation of author(s) as well as the e-mail and
postal addresses of the author(s). Each submission will receive three
reviews. At least one of the authors of every accepted paper must register
and present the work at the workshop. The PC will select some of the best
papers and invite them for publication in related journals (TBD).
