                  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                  invited to submit original, unpublished manuscripts.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
