Current advances in wireless and mobile communication systems have
revolutionised the traditional concept of Internet. The novel paradigm of
"Internet of Things (IoT)" is rapidly gaining ground in various
applications. It is envisioned that several aspects of our everyday life and
behaviour will be fundamentally changed. 

Applications such as assisted living, e-health and enhanced learning are
only a few examples of possible scenarios in which the IoT will play a
leading role in the near future. Larger-scale applications such as
automation and industrial manufacturing, logistics, business/process
management and intelligent transportation of people and goods will be the
visible consequence of IoT's proliferation. Topics such as sensor networks,
RFID, short-range wireless communications, real-time localisation, ad-hoc
networks and mobile security have attracted much attention recently. 

The goal of this special issue is to publish the most recent results in the
development of IoT. Researchers and practitioners working in this area are
invited to take this opportunity to discuss and express their views on the
current trends, challenges and state of the art solutions addressing various
issues in IoT.
