Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
Internet of Things (IoT) technology makes it possible to gather data from everywhere and it can be used for any type of environment (e.g., cities, rural zones, etc.). Sensors and sensor networks allow all “things” to communicate directly with each other to share vital information, allowing us to have everything monitored and leading to better services. Moreover, accurate data is readily available to inform optimal decision making. The IoT enables a wide range of new capabilities and services. It changes how people go about their lives and their belongings. The scale of the IoT is set to have major economic, social, and environmental impacts, the intersection of which forms future sustainable growth.
This Special issue is an open call, but we encourage the submission of the best selected papers of the 5th International Conference on Internet of Things: Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS 2018) held in Valencia, Spain on 15–18 October 2018 and 6th International Conference on Internet of Things: Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS 2019) held in Granada, Spain on 22-25 October 2019. The scope of the Special Issue is placed on IoT development, analysis, and integration, with a focus on the role of sensor systems and information gathering and processing techniques of IoT ecosystems.
You are welcome to submit an unpublished original research work related to the theme of “Sensor Systems for Internet of Things”.
