Call for Papers "INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON SELF-AWARE INTERNET OF THINGS Self-IoT 2012 in conjunction with ICAC 2012"

The Self-IoT aims to be a reference workshop that will gather different scientific communities from academy and industry under one common objective: realizing plug&play, context-aware and autonomous Internet of things that will be self-configured, self-organized, self-optimized and self-healed without (or with minimum) human intervention.

The workshop is looking for novel ideas, works in progress or deployment experiences in application domains such as smart city, smart home/building, smart transport, smart retail and smart healthcare.

Topics of interest

- Software engineering for self-adaptive internet of things, model-oriented approaches, automated tools for development, deployment and supervision of IoT devices and services

- Autonomous IoT Clouds, self-provisioning of IoT Services

- Control theory in IoT, distributed control loops, decision making mechanisms, prediction models at run-time, learning from experience, relations with artificial intelligence techniques, multi-agent approaches for autonomic IoT

- Modelling environmental context and user behaviour, semantic IoT, self-adaptation to context

- Event-Condition-Action rules, objective functions, prediction models applied to the IoT, adaptation of techniques such as Bayesian networks, decision trees or fuzzy logic to the IoT context;

- Performance monitoring, diagnostics and self-healing of the IoT

- Plug-n-play IoT, IoT device/service discovery protocols, self-matchmaking of Internet of things and Internet of services

- Autonomic security and dependency management; robust and trustable IoT systems

- Self-organizing network protocols, ad-hoc routing mechanisms, cognitive networks adapted to resource constrained devices and lossy environments

- Autonomic experience in IoT applications such as smart home/building, smart transport, smart city, smart healthcare and smart retailer.
