Second International Workshop on Internet of Things, Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS) in conjunction with 12th ACS/IEEE International Conference on Computer Systems and Applications (AICCSA' 2015) http://aiccsa.net/website/workshop Call for Papers The Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers unprecedented opportunities to interconnect human beings as well as Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, whereby sensors and networks allow all ‘things’ to communicate directly with each other to share vital information and allow us to have an instrumented universe where accurate data is readily available to inform optimal decision making. The IoT would enable a range of new capabilities and services far beyond today’s offerings which will radically change how people go about their lives. According to Cisco IBSG’s prediction, the number of objects connected to the Internet is set to reach 25 billion by 2015 and 50 billion by 2020. The scale of the IoT is set to have a major economical, social and environmental impacts; the intersection of which forms the future sustainable growth. The Internet of Things: Systems, Management and Security (IOT_SMS) workshop will be held in conjunction with 12th ACS/IEEE International Conference on Computer Systems and Applications (AICCSA' 2015)The IOT_SMS workshop aims at soliciting original ideas on the broad area of IoT including challenges and opportunities, concepts and applications and future trends. The workshop aims to facilitate discussions amongst 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 Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished manuscripts.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. The topics of interest for this workshop include, but are not limited to: Emerging concepts of IoT Design methodologies for IoT Novel services and applications of IoT to facilitate environmental responsibility Green by Internet of Things IoT and Social benefits/impact IoT Economics Emerging Internet of Things business models and process changes Communication systems and network architectures for the IoT IoT and Data Management Security and privacy of IoT Reliability of IoT Disaster recovery in IoT Applications of Internet of things Emerging applications and interaction paradigms for everyday citizens Big data and IoT Self-organizing IoT Cloud Computing and IoT IoT and sustainable Growth The workshop important dates: Paper submission: 17th August 2015 Notification of acceptance: 1st September 2015 Camera Ready: 22nd September 2015 General Co-chairs Elhadj Benkhelifa, Staffordshire University, UK Ammar Rayes, Cisco Systems, USA Technical Program Co-Chairs Yaser Jararweh, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Jordan Abdallah Khreishah, New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA Issa Khalil, Qatar Foundation, Qatar Publication and Publicity Chairs Mahmoud Al-Ayyoub, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Jordan Ala Al-Fuqaha, Western Michigan University, USA Mohamed Abdel-Maguid, University Campus Suffolk, UK Technical program committee: * Anthony Pipe, Bristol Robotics Laboratory, UK * Qutaibah Althebyan, JUST, Jordan * Mokhtar Nibouche, University of the West of England * Ashiq Anjum, University of Derby, UK * Andy Rindos, IBM Research, USA * Jianwu Wang, University of California, San Diego, USA * Ahmed Bouridane, University of Northumbria, UK * Mohamed Abdel-Maguid, University Campus Suffolk, UK * Robert Kinmond, Staffordshire University, UK * Hongnian Yu, Bournemouth University, UK * Muhannad Quwaider, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Jordan * Saleem Abuleil, Chicago State University, USA * Khaled Alsamara, Chicago State University, USA * Khalid Alzoubi, Saint Xavier University, USA * Muhammad Anan, Alfaisal University, Saudi Arabia * Kashif Munir, King Fahad University of Petrolium and Minerals, Saudi Arabia * Ali Bou Nassif, University of Western Ontario, Canada * Yousef Farhaoui, Moulay Ismail University, Morocco * Mohammad Hamdaqa, University of Waterloo, Canada * Bo Ji, Temple University, USA * Mehdi Mohammadi, Western Michigan University, USA * Sihua Shao, New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA For any Inquiry please send an email to: E.Benkhelifa@staffs.ac.uk<mailto:E.Benkhelifa@staffs.ac.uk> yijararweh@just.edu.jo<mailto:yijararweh@just.edu.jo> ________________________________ Jordan University of Science and Technology accepts no liability for any damage caused by any virus transmitted by this email.
