The Fifth IEEE International Workshop on Internet of Things: Networking
Applications and Technologies (IoTNAT 2019)
<http://emergingtechnet.org/IOTNAT2019/index.php>

in conjunction with

The 4th International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC
2019) <http://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2019/index.php>

Rome, Italy. June 10-13, 2019

(Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Italy Section)

*IoTNAT 2019 CFP*

The Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers unprecedented opportunities
to interconnect human beings as well as Machine-to-Machine (M2M), whereby
sensors and networks allow all ‘things’ to communicate directly with each
other to share vital information allowing us to have an instrumented
universe where accurate data is readily available to inform optimal
decision making. The IoT is about to enable a range of new capabilities and
services far beyond today’s offerings. It will fundamentally change how
people go about their lives. According to Gartner, the number of objects
connected to the Internet is set to reach 20 billion by 2020. Cisco
estimates the number will be close to 26 billion objects by 2020. Others
believe the actual number will be even higher with the assumption that any
object with a simple micro controller and on-off switch will be connected
to the Internet in the near feature. The scale of the IoT is set to have a
major economic, social and environmental impacts; the intersection of which
forms the future sustainable growth. The IEEE International Workshop on
Internet of Things: Networking Applications and Technologies (IoTNAT 2019)
Symposium will be held in conjunction with The Second International
Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2019). The IoTNAT 2019
Symposium aims at soliciting original ideas on the broad area of IoT
including challenges and opportunities, concepts and applications and
future trends. The Symposium aims to facilitate discussions among academics
and IoT practitioners and make positive contributions to the field. Authors
are invited to submit original, unpublished manuscripts. Submitted papers
should be in accordance with IEEE format, and will be reviewed by at least
two expert reviewers in terms of relevance, originality, contribution,
correctness, and presentation.

The topics of interest include but are not limited to:



·         Emerging concepts of IoT

·         Design methodologies for IoT

·         Novel services and applications of IoT to facilitate
environmental responsibility
