Special Issue on Exploring the Socializing Aspect of Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT): Challenges and Trends
Submission Deadline: * July 31, 2019*

Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT) has a broader spectrum that holds all the wearable devices that are capable of communicating with each other or at least with the coordinator or sink device (these days referred to as cloud or server). The technology industry recently has a paradigm shift towards smart wearable devices that are capable of socializing with each other without explicit input from humans. These devices can be a smart wrist band that might be able to monitor the health of a person and can communicate with the physician in case of an emergency or a tracker embedded into child’s clothes that might be able to alarm parents if child leaves the house. Such socializing of these smart WIoT devices has a huge potential in various industries like HealthCare, Special Education, Engineering and Enterprise. Socializing in WIoTs are still in conceptualizing phase and require standardization, benchmarking, architectural designs, models, guidelines, policies and measurement criteria for development and deployment of applications and services. Due to wearable and mobile nature of entities in WIoT, it offers diverse set of challenges when it comes to socializing, including, but not limited to, decentralization, anonymity, security, privacy, trust management, reputation management, uncertainty and pervasiveness. Besides these challenges, several issues like scalability, reliability, adaptability and validity of available solutions are still unexplored.
This special issue is expected to provide a platform for academicians and industry researchers to identify and debate technical and non-technical challenges and recent accomplishments associated with dynamic socializing of WIoT. Specific topics include, but are not limited to:
· Social WIoT Architecture and Enabling Technologies
· Integration, Wearability and User-acceptance of WIoT for socializing
· Data Processing and Analytics for WIoT
· Enabling Edge Computing in WIoT
· Security, Privacy and Trust Management in Social WIoT
· Social and Ethical implications of WIoT
· Social Media Integration of WIoT
· Social WIoT Applications and Use Case Scenarios
· Communication Technologies for Socializing in WIoT
· Smart Wearable IoT Devices
The submitted manuscripts for this special issue will be peer-reviewed before publication.
