health, smart cities, smart industries, smart agriculture, smart
environment, smart transportation, smart homes, smart education, smart
business, smart energy, smart grids, and so on are the components that
aid the mankind for smart living. However, they require, typically,
design and development of innovative technologies, standards, and
protocols apart from their architectures and frameworks. IoT has emerged
as an extension to Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with the low-cost
and Internet-enabled solution for connecting and accessible anything
from anywhere. In addition, such smartness derived due to the artificial
intelligence yields in the production of tremendous amounts of data.
The data increases as a baby-boomer requiring efficient tools to analyze
and extract suitable inferences for services in order to extend smart
living. Cloud, Edge and Big Data acquired enormous attention in the
light of massive data storage and analytics. With the large cohorts of
gazette shrewdness and hi-tech population, the infrastructure, service
delivery becomes expensive and difficult to manage for cities and
governments. Automating systems through utilization of IoT, Cloud, Edge,
Big Data, and M2M tools and technologies demonstrate great opportunity
to reduce operating costs significantly, utilize those savings more
effectively, and provide better services to communities for the smarter
living. This workshop provides a platform to the researchers to publish
their innovative ideas, extensive analysis of their comparative studies,
critical review of existing research and position papers in the above
areas to meet the smart living requirements. The topics of interest
include but are not limited to:</div><div
