CALL FOR PAPERS
===============

The 2016 IEEE Workshop on Scalable Internet of Things (S-IoT)
(http://s-iot.weebly.com/)
11-13 April - Cairo, Egypt

in conjunction with the international conference on selected topics in
Mobile and Wireless Networking (MoWNet’2016)
(http://www.mownet.org/)


The Internet of things (IoT) started to grip traction beyond anyone has
imagined. IoT revolves around device-to-device communication and getting
billions of devices communicate with each other autonomously in a scalable
fashion. IoT is built on cloud computing technologies and networks of real
time data-gathering sensors. IoT doesn’t function without cloud-based
applications that interpret and transmit data coming from heterogeneous
sensors. However, the real value of IoT is not about collecting and
analyzing streams of data, but rather on creating innovative techniques
and mechanisms that turn this data into actions.

The S-IoT workshop is intended to create a platform for researchers,
developers, and practitioners in current IoT and ubiquitous computing from
academia, industry, and service providers to share and discuss their
ideas, experiences, challenges, and practical implementations related to
the Internet of Things. We encourage high quality submissions addressing
current challenges and proposing novel research directions. We invite
technical research papers, industrial papers, position papers, and tool
demonstration papers.

The topics of interest include, but not limited to:
---------------------------------------------------

 - IoT infrastructure stack
 - Data aggregation and middleware architecture
 - Rule-based end-user programming
 - IoT end-user APIs § Emerging IoT applications
 - IoT-oriented cloud architectures and deployments
 - Mobility support for ubiquitous data access
 - Mobile data and storage architectures
 - Software architecture and design for IoT
 - Context management in ubiquitous IoT scenarios
 - Mobile sensing Big Data: paradigms and techniques
 - Localization mechanisms and algorithms
 - Computation offloading: strategies and techniques
 - Performance evaluation of IoT techniques and models
 - Reliability, availability, and scalability in ubiquitous IoT
 - Energy and resource optimization in IoT
 - Privacy and security protections in IoT scenarios

Important Dates
---------------

Submission of research papers due: February 5, 2016
Notification of paper acceptance: February 30, 2016
Submission of camera-ready papers: March 15, 2016

Paper submission
----------------

Papers should be written in English. Manuscripts should be no more than 8
pages, double column, IEEE style including tables, figures and references.
Please use either the IEEE Word or LaTex templates and instructions
provided by IEEE. Papers must be submitted by February 5, 2016 using EDAS
(http://edas.info/N21948). Papers meeting these requirements will be
peer-reviewed by at least three independent reviewers, including a TPC
member. Papers must present original and unpublished work and should not
be currently under review by any other conference or journal.
