CALL FOR PAPERS

1st International Workshop on Interoperability,

Integration, and Interconnection of Internet of Things

Systems (I4T)

 jointly held with

IOTDI — 1st IEEE International Conference on Internet-of-Things Design and Implementation

April 4-6, 2016, Berlin, Germany

While still in his infancy, the IoT domain already lists a number of

solutions implemented, ranging from devices to platforms.

However, the heterogeneity at all levels of those solutions is

 preventing different systems to interoperate effectively, despite

significant efforts in the development of a unique reference

standard for IoT systems technology. The situation is likely to

worsen in the near future, as lack of interoperability causes major

technological and business-oriented issues such as impossibility to

 plug non-interoperable IoT devices into heterogeneous IoT

 platforms, impossibility to develop IoT applications exploitingmultiple platforms in homogeneous and/or cross domains,

slowness of IoT technology introduction at large-scale,

discouragement in adopting IoT technology, increase of costs,

scarce reusability of technical solutions, and user dissatisfaction.

This Workshop aims at investigating such lack of interoperability

in the IoT realm by welcoming paper submissions providing

innovative research as well as technical contributions on providing

solutions to interoperability, integration, and interconnection of

heterogeneous IoT systems, at any level.

Areas of Interest

- 

Definition of interoperable and open IoT architectures

- 

Service Virtualization in the IoT

- 

Integration methods for heterogeneous IoT platforms-  Interconnection of heterogeneous IoT devices

-  Interoperable and open Big Data models for IoT

- 

Matching non-interoperable IoT ontologies and semantics

- 

Security, privacy and trust in IoT systems integration

- 

Interoperability use cases in IoT application domains (m-

Health, transportation and logistics, smart factory, smart grid)

and cross-domain

-  Standard interoperability mechanisms for the IoT

(under setting ) 

Review Process and Publication

All original submitted manuscripts will be peer-reviewed.

Submissions will be judged on correctness, originality, technical

strength, significance, presentation, quality, interest and relevanceto workshop scope. We also welcome papers reporting on

industrial deployment experiences, case studies, and lessons

learned. After review, some submissions may be offered to be

 published as short papers (six pages). Accepted papers will be part

of the IoTDI 2016 proceedings published by published by the

IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing.

Journal Special Issue

Selected papers presented at the conference will be invited to a

special issue organized in a premier International Journal (with

SCI Index) that is under selection and/or in the Springer Series on

Internet of Things.

Important DatesDecember 1, 2015: Submission Deadline.

January 15, 2016: Acceptance/Rejection Notification.

January 31, 2016: Final camera-ready papers.
