IoTech - International Workshop on
Internet of Things Technology and Architectures
Workshop date: October 11, 2012
(Co-located with IEEE MASS 2012, Las Vegas, Nevada, US)
IoTech site: http://iotech-ws.com
*******************************************************************
In recent years, wireless sensors and mobile technologies have
experienced a tremendous upsurge. Advances in hardware design and
micro-fabrication have made it possible to potentially embed sensing
and communication devices in every object, from banknotes to bicycles,
leading to the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT). It is expected
that physical objects in the near future will create an unprecedented
network of interconnected physical things able to communicate
information about themselves and/or their surroundings and also
capable of interacting with the physical environment where they
operate.
Key peculiarities of IoT are the extremely large number of devices and
their capability of seamlessly communicating via the Internet
Protocol, which is expected to make IoT technology pervasive. IoTech
will tackle technical issues related to fundamental as well as applied
research on Internet of Things. Our intention is being inclusive,
gathering practitioners, implementors and researchers with differing
backgrounds and expertise to foster technical discussion and
collaborations among IoT technology. For this second edition we would
like to emphasize two aspects: 1) on the one side, the ability to
scavenge energy to facilitate a sustainable IoT; and 2) on the other
side, the coexistence of different technologies in the IoT, e.g.,
(low-power) WiFi, IEEE 802.15.4 (and its many variants), LTE
Femtocells as gateway access points, mixed wired and wireless network
setups.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
* Energy efficient device architectures: emphasis will be given on
novel hardware designs, especially exploiting or integrating
systems for energy harvesting.
* Energy driven network design: emphasis will be given to papers
dealing with self-sufficient devices with energy harvesting
capabilities.
* Reference and concrete communication architectures for IoTs:
emphasis will be given on the capability of scaling up to a large
number of communicating devices.
* Communication protocol suites for energy constrained devices:
theoretical investigation, design, implementation and experimental
validation.
* Optimization and improvement of standard protocols for specific
application domains, e.g., smart energy metering, for their usage
within IoT domains.
* Lightweight signal processing techniques for smart objects, e.g.,
distributed Source Coding, Compressive Sensing, Lossless and lossy
compression, etc.
