preliminary announcement and call for papers

The "Internet of Things (IoT)" disrupts with the today's Internet limitations of human-entered data: technologies like RFID, short-range wireless communications, real-time localization, and sensor networks empower computers to perceive the world for themselves. Standardized infrastructures capable of managing, sharing and processing this captured data will be necessary in order to bring the Internet of Things into commercial use.

This interlinking of physical world and cyberspace foreshadows an exciting endeavour that is highly relevant to researchers, corporations, and individuals.

This conference will continue the success of the Internet of Things conference from 2008 in Zurich. It brings internationally leading researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry together to facilitate sharing of applications, research results, and knowledge. The IoT2010 particularly encourages research on infrastructure and applications facilitating environmentaly responsibility under a theme "IoT for a Green Planet".

The three-day event will feature keynotes from industrial and academic visionaries, technical presentations of cutting-edge research, reports on the user-experience from seasoned practitioners, panel discussions on hot topics, poster sessions summarizing late-breaking results, and hands-on demos of current technology.

Be sure to mark your calendars if you want to know more about:

* Green by Internet of Things / Green of Internet of Things Technology
* Design of future sustainable technologies linking the physical and virtual world
* Novel services and applications to facilitate environmental responsibility
* Emerging Internet of Things business models and process changes
* Communication systems and network architectures for the IoT
* Experience reports from the introduction and operation of networked things in areas such as healthcare, logistics & transport
* Emerging applications and interaction paradigms for everyday citizens
* Social impacts and consequences, such as security, privacy, opportunities and risks

Full paper Submissions should not be longer than 18 pages, short papers shold be no longer than 10 pages. All papers undergo a rigorous review process, managed by the Program Chair and a committee of meta-reviewers. Submissions must be original work and cannot have been published elsewhere, nor can they be under concurrent review for publication by another conference or journal. Confidentiality of submissions is maintained during the review process.

All rejected submissions will be kept confidential in perpetuity. All submitted materials for accepted submissions will be kept confidential until the start of the conference.

Proceedings will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Paper submissions should be anonymized to facilitate blind review. See the Submission Instructions for details.
