*******************************************************************
The realization of the IoT vision entails several technical
challenges: smart objects should communicate using energy efficient
but standard solutions, which should then be Internet compatible,
i.e., they should exploit IPv6 addressing so that smart objects could
natively be connected with Internet networks. Suitable architectures
must be identified for communication, security, billing, accounting,
etc. Moreover, adequate solutions should be designed to make the
communication secure (authentication, encryption, etc.).
The networks that we foresee for IoT are no longer bound to be sensor
islands and diverse physical layer technologies and processing
capabilities may differ across the nodes composing a IoT. The
application scenarios for IoT are extremely appealing and with a
strong potential for societal impact, ranging from smart buildings to
smart energy grids, where structures can be controlled for energy
frugality, while guaranteeing good performance in terms of comfort,
security, etc. Major researches as well as industrial efforts are
currently ongoing for all these issues. However, most of them remain
open areas of research.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
* Reference and Concrete Architectures for the Internet of
Things.
* Service frameworks for the Internet of Things.
* New communication paradigms for the Internet of Things.
* Security approaches for the Internet of Things.
* Security primitives and protocols for embedded and constrained
communication devices.
* Protocol stacks for the communication (e.g., IETF RPL) and the
interoperability of IoT devices.
* Improvements to standard protocols for the IoT domain.
* Technologies for the native IPv6 interoperability of constrained
communication devices (e.g., 6LowPAN).
* RESTful communication approaches for energy constrained
communication devices.
* Lightweight approaches for the description of sensor data (e.g.,
EXI).

prediction.
* Distributed data compression, approximation and recovery of
distributed sensor data.
* Privacy enhancing techniques for handling sensory and contextual
information.
* Virtualization of Wireless Sensors or clusters of sensors.
* Hardware architectures for smart communicating objects (e.g., IEEE
802.15.4e).
* Simulators for the Internet of Things.
* Solutions for trust and security.
