2nd CALL FOR PAPERS International Conference on Interoperability in IoT  26-27 October, 2015 – Rome, Italy
SCOPE: After some market consolidation happening mostly between 2011 and 2013, IoT products are now hitting the market across all segments: consumer (wearables, home automation), commercial (HVAC, parking) and industrial (industrial process control, supervision). Often driven by the fear to “fall behind”, small and large companies push their engineering teams to productize solutions quickly. If those companies choose to implement standards-based products, the compliance testing, interoperation testing and labeling of their product may take over a year, which is often unacceptable giving todays rush-to-market. Companies therefore often go for in-house proprietary solutions, which can be developed and tested much faster. The result is that the market is highly fragmented: a large number of non-interoperable solutions are being installed, eventually leading to increased cost, inefficiencies, customer frustration, and a rate of adoption of the IoT much slower than the numbers touted by analysts. The market is now at a state where we need to think about interoperability. What does it take to make different IoT solutions seamlessly integrate with one another? Are there architectures and tools one could develop to speed up interoperability testing? If interoperability isn’t feasible or desired, can we at least build in mechanisms for different product to coexist? The goal of this conference is to bring together practicing engineers and advanced researchers to share the state-of-the-art around interoperability in the IoT, analyse what is needed, and identify the work that lies ahead to increase the number of interoperable IoT products.
HIGHLIGHTS: ·       We are happy to inform you that our Keynote speaker at the conference this year will be: ·       Prof. Dr.-Ing. Carsten Bormann           ·       The event is endorsed by the European Alliance for Innovation, a leading community-based organization devoted to the advancement of innovation in the field of ICT and will be co-located with the IOT360 Summit; ·       Participation in this event will give attendees the unique opportunity to be exposed to all technical scientific aspects of IoT related topic areas at co-located conferences, as well as be able to have full access to the IoT market place and business aspects in practice at the IOT 360 Summit. ·       All accepted papers will be published by Springer and made available through SpringerLink Digital Library, one of the world's largest scientific libraries. ·       Best Papers will be considered for publication in the ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and Applications Journal (MONET) ·       Selected papers may be invited to publish in the EAI Endorsed Transactions on Mobile Communications and Applications.and in the EAI Endorsed Transactions on Ubiquitous Environments     PUBLICATION: Accepted papers will be published in the Springer's LNICST series and will appear in SpringerLink, one of the largest digital libraries online that covers a variety of scientific disciplines, as well as in the ICST's own EU Digital Library (EUDL). LNICST volumes are submitted for inclusion to leading indexing services, including DBLP, Google Scholar, ACM Digital Library, ISI Proceedings, EI Engineering Index, CrossRef and Scopus. Selected papers may be invited to publish in the EAI Endorsed Transactions on Mobile Communications and Applications. and in the EAI Endorsed Transactions on Ubiquitous Environments.   CONFERENCE TOPICS: The Conference on Interoperability in IoT solicits original contributions in, but not limited to, the following topical areas: ·       coexistence and interoperability ·       experimental results on interoperability ·       standardization activities around interoperability ·       novel protocols and techniques which favor interoperability ·       studies on interoperability between different protocols, hardware and technologies ·       gap analysis on interoperability ·       architectures enabling interoperability, virtualization ·       novel architectures for interoperability testing ·       tools and testbeds to support interoperability testing ·       open-source projects around interoperability in IoT ·       interoperability between different IoT implementations ·       survey on interoperability and heterogeneity  in IoT infrastructures   PAPER SUBMISSION: ·       Regular Papers should be up to 12  pages in length. Short papers up to 4 pages in lenght. Complete formatting and submission instructions can be found on the conference web site. ·       Papers will be judged on originality, correctness, clarity and relevance. Submitted papers must be original work, and may not be under consideration for another conference or journal. ·       Submission of the paper implies agreement of the author(s) to attend the conference and present the paper if accepted. ·       For additional information please see here.
