In IOT, not only computers are connected to the internet, any object, animal or people could be connected to the internet. Objects, animals, and people have a unique identifier (address). They can transfer data over the internet without requiring human-to-computer interaction. The existence of different types of objects which are connected through the internet promote many research challenges. For example, huge amounts of data are usually generated, processed and transferred. Special Internetworking infrastructure may be needed. Security and privacy issues become more critical.</p><p style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-align:justify">The Seventh International Workshop on the Future of the Internet of Things (FIT 2021) will be held in conjunction with <a href="http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/mobispc-21/#homePage" target="_blank">The 18th International Conference on Mobile Systems and Pervasive Computing</a> August 9-12, 2021, Leuven, Belgium. </p><p style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-align:justify">The goal of the FIT2021 is to bring together multi-disciplinary researchers, professionals and practitioners from academia and industry who are involved in the field of internet of things to discuss recent advances and innovative ideas in this field.<span style="font-size:11pt;text-align:left;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;color:rgb(34,34,34)">.</span></p><div><span style="font-size:16pt;text-align:justify"><br></span></div><div><h2 style="margin:7pt 0px 6pt;font-weight:normal;font-size:16pt;border:1px solid rgb(0,114,161);background:rgb(0,114,161);color:rgb(255,255,255);padding:4pt 0pt 6pt 20pt;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;border-radius:4px;text-align:justify">List of Topics</h2></div><div><span style="font-size:16pt;text-align:justify"><br></span></div><ul style="max-width:650pt;padding-bottom:5pt;margin:12px 0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px;text-align:start"><li style="text-align:left"><span style="font-size:11pt">Applications of the Internet of Things.</span></li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Standards for an Internet of Things.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Communication systems in the Internet of things.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Network infrastructures in the internet of things.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Internet protocols.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Data processing on the internet of things.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Information management in the internet of things.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Security and Privacy in the Internet of things.</li><li style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4">Locating and tracking of objects in internet of things</li></ul><div style="text-align:left"><h2 style="margin:7pt 0px 6pt;font-weight:normal;font-size:16pt;border:1px solid rgb(0,114,161);background:rgb(0,114,161);color:rgb(255,255,255);padding:4pt 0pt 6pt 20pt;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;border-radius:4px;text-align:justify">Important Dates </h2><ul style="max-width:650pt;padding-bottom:5pt;margin:12px 0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><li style="font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4"><strong>Paper Submission: </strong> April 30, 2021</li><li style="font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4"><strong>Acceptance Notification:</strong> May 17, 2021</li><li style="font-size:11pt;padding:3px 0px;line-height:1.4"><strong>Final Manuscript Due:</strong> June 15, 2021</li></ul><div><font color="#000000" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.6667px"><br></span></font></div><div><h2 style="margin:7pt 0px 6pt;font-weight:normal;font-size:16pt;border:1px solid rgb(0,114,161);background:rgb(0,114,161);color:rgb(255,255,255);padding:4pt 0pt 6pt 20pt;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;border-radius:4px">Publication</h2><p style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-align:justify">All FIT2021 accepted papers will be scheduled for oral presentations and will be printed in the conference proceedings published by Elsevier Science in the open-access Procedia Computer Science series (on-line). </p><p style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-align:justify"><br></p><p style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-align:justify">Yours</p><p style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-align:justify">Dr. Tayseer Alkhdour, Workshop organizer</p></div></div></div></div></div>
