Converging innovations in a range of areas, including smart systems, wearables, wireless communication, artificial intelligence, cloud computing and others, is driving us towards Nikola Tesla's vision of a completely interconnected Earth; an Internet of both people and things. IPAT focuses on state of the art research that addresses theoretical and practical challenges in this space, where people and things are equal as Internet users. From a practical technical perspective, the number of connected devices is estimated to reach 50 billion by 2020, and to facilitate the integration of IoT in daily life, suitable people-centric solutions are needed for context awareness, heterogeneity, personalisation and security among others. At the same time, using IoT and mobile systems to source people's collective knowledge and intelligence or facilitate collaboration can be immensely helpful in several applications, from policing to emergency management and pollution detection.
In this context, where people and things are equal, IPAT's topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- People-centric Internet of Things
- IoT applications for smart built environments
- Social and crowd
- Context-aware
- Personalised Health Care IoT
- Applications of mobile and wearable sensors
- User-centric security, privacy and trust in the IoT
