The goal is to connect devices that are able to self-configure and self-adapt to contextual changes through collaboration, instead of expecting direct human input. Nevertheless, this seamless integration of the cyber capabilities of the corresponding devices with the physical world, is poised to take the threats against this technology to the next level. In this context, every threat against IoT may constitute a threat against the physical assets of systems and such threats may be even translated to loss of human lives. The focus of SPIoT is on high quality research papers about state of the art in a wide range of IoT-related technologies: - Security and privacy in heterogeneous IoT. - Secure and Privacy Preserving Data Mining and Aggregation in IoT applications. - Cross-domain trust management in smart networks. - Secure authentication of IoT devices. - MAC layer security protocols for the IoT applications. - IoT security mechanisms targeting application layer protocols. - Resource-savvy Intrusion Detection for Networks of Things. - IoT-based malware mitigation. Proceedings: All accepted papers will be published by Springer LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) in SpaCCS 2019 Workshops Proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex). ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Smart health, smart cities, smart industries, smart agriculture, smart environment, smart transportation, smart homes, smart education, smart business, smart energy, smart grids, and so on are the components that aid the mankind for smart living. However, they require, typically, design and development of innovative technologies, standards, and protocols apart from their architectures and frameworks. IoT has emerged as an extension to Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with the low-cost and Internet-enabled solution for connecting and accessible anything from anywhere. In addition, such smartness derived due to the artificial intelligence yields in the production of tremendous amounts of data. The data increases as a baby-boomer requiring efficient tools to analyze and extract suitable inferences for services in order to extend smart living. Cloud, Edge and Big Data acquired enormous attention in light of massive data storage and analytics. With the large cohorts of gazette shrewdness and hi-tech population, the infrastructure, service delivery becomes expensive and difficult to manage for cities and governments. Automating systems through utilization of IoT, Cloud, Edge, Big Data, and M2M tools and technologies demonstrate great opportunity to reduce operating costs significantly, utilize those savings more effectively, and provide better services to communities for the smarter living.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can play an important role in smart agriculture by collecting environmental data. Their ability to carry different type of payloads such as sensors, high definition cameras, antennas, or even sprayers make it a great ally for agriculturalists. In large-scale applications, e.g., wide area farms, forests or even sea farms, a cluster or a network of UAVs is adopted by opening new paths of research and development in a field which is called Flying Ad hoc Network (FANET). FANETs incorporate UAVs and Internet of Things (IoT) as communicating entities for realizing more demanding and large-scale applications. There is no doubt that with the proper collaboration and coordination of multiple UAVs, in a form of FANET, the emerged system would exceed by far the capabilities of a single UAV system. Single UAV systems usually utilize heavier, larger and more expensive UAVs which in case of a fall could pose great danger to human life and property. Using a single UAV, the amount of coverage is limited, while with multi-UAVs the scalability of the operation can be easily extended. Moreover, a failure in singe UAV system means that the whole mission has failed, on the contrary, multiple UAVs can share tasks among themselves, thus the fault tolerant of the system increases significantly. Since the number of applications a single UAV can serve are proportionate to the systems that are installed on its board, it is quite clear that FANETs can server different application in parallel thus reducing significantly the execution time of a mission. It is quite obvious that FANETs can enhance smart farming management process significantly. Prerequisite for their deployment is a network that will guarantee the proper communication between UAVs in order to ensure their efficient collaboration and coordination. FANETs take on the communication among UAV nodes as well as the rest of the nodes (ground sensors, base stations and gateways). Although there are various advantages of FANETs, when compared to single-UAV systems, several challenges are emerged when implementing FANETs in smart farming systems such as the efficient communication and the coordination among the various flying UAVs and among the UAVs and the ground sensors, base stations and gateways. This Special Issue seeks to make an in-depth, critical contribution to this evolving field of FANET in conjunction with smart farming and smart agriculture applications and systems. In the context of this special issue, we intend to bring together the state-of-the-art research contributions towards providing new insights in the FANET applications and benefits of the emerging methods and technologies in the IoT-enabled agriculture sector. The topics that can be addressed include (but are not limited to) the following ones. =Topics= - Real deployments and case studies of FANETs in smart farming. - Regulations and recommendations for FANETs in smart farming applications. - Management of heterogeneous UAVs in FANETs. - Crop models and decision support systems in FANETSs. - Routing models and protocols of FANETs in smart agriculture. - Quality of Service (QoS) in FANET applications. - FANETs-based edge and Fog computing in smart farming. - Coordination of multiple UAVs in smart farming applications and systems. - Communication methods and protocols of FANET UAVs in agricultural domain. - Human-FANETs interaction for smart farming. - Farmers' acceptance and intention to use FANETs. - Big data in agricultural domain using UAVs. - Big data innovation in sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - Energy efficiency and management of FANETs in smart farming. - FANET-driven frameworks towards improving the resilience of farming systems. - FANET application in mixed farming systems. - Embedding sensors and actuators on UAVs for smart farming. - UAVs in precise farming in combination with the related climate change mitigation potential. - IoT tools and techniques for sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - Big data analysis tools and machine learning techniques in decision-making frameworks for FANETs. - Modern Geographic Information System (GIS) and remote sensing techniques in agriculture for FANETs. - Security issues regarding FANETs in smart farming. - Privacy issues regarding FANETs in smart farming. - Cloud-enabled techniques and in-the-field integration for sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - Schemes and algorithms that enable the participative design of mixed farming and agroforestry systems through UAVs or/and FANETs. - Cloud-enabled techniques and in-the-field integration for sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - FANET applications to increase synergies between crops and livestock. - Smart bandwidth utilization by FANETs in smart farming. - Models and tools adapted to real farm management to grasp the inherent complexity of mixed farming and agroforestry systems using UAVs. *Guest Editors* Panagiotis Sarigiannidis University of Western Macedonia, Greece Email: psarigiannidis(a)uowm.gr Anastasios A.

Authors of extended versions of selected papers will be invited to receive fee waivers for inclusion in the Special Issue “IoT Applications and Industry 4.0” hosted by the journal “Information” (MDPI). ***Aim and Scope*** It is evident that IoT is entering multiple fields of everyday life. The proliferation of IoT devices as well as the numerous use cases reveal the very promising potentials of IoT in revolutionizing several aspects of common activities as well as business processes. The vision of interconnecting billions of devices in a holistic network, where machines communicate along with traditional human communications is now being realized, towards the formation of the Internet of Everything (as called by Cisco). The workshop focuses on Industrial Internet of Things systems and applications, which represent the highest value segment of the IoT market.
