================================================================================================================================ Call for Papers Special Issue "Applications of Internet of Things (IoT): Challenges and Opportunities" of Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050). https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability/special_issues/app_internet ================================================================================================================================

Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050), IF 2.592, is running a Special Issue on the topic of "Applications of Internet of Things (IoT): Challenges and Opportunities".  Dr. David Gil, Dr. Jesús Peral and Dr. Mohan Tanniru are serving as the guest editors.

You are cordially invited to submit a contribution to this Special Issue, of either original research or a review. The submission deadline is 30 June 2020.

Internet of things (IoT) has made it possible for many devices (sensors, RFID, GPS, and many other types of smart devices) to acquire data on product use in context so as to provide insight and help organizations act to create value. While advanced technologies like big data analytics and machine learning techniques can help gain insight, there are still ways that are needed in order to assist organizations to take actions from these insights. Organizations who can sustain value creation over time are those who can move from analysis to insight to action by evaluating and implementing viable solutions quickly to meet customer needs.

This Special Issue seeks to explore how IoT advances are used by cities for sustainability along multiple dimensions. Some examples include water resource management, efficient energy use, and air quality assurance, as well as improving citizen interactions in support of public policy formulation on health, transport, education, and economic development. Specifically, we are looking for innovative tools and techniques used for data analysis, models, and architectures used to gain insights, simulate performance, and coordinate action, as well as leadership models to implement actions.

Keywords: - Internet of things - Data mining with big data - Machine learning techniques for big data analysis - Data visualization and integration - Modeling and simulation - Public administration policies - Digital transformation and leadership - Economic, social, and environmental sustainability - Sustainability in smart cities
