lang="EN-GB">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 Internet of
Things: Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS 2019) aims at
soliciting original ideas on the broad area of IoT including
challenges and opportunities, concepts and applications and
future trends. The IoTSMS 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original, unpublished manuscripts.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.</span><span
