[iot-discussion] Fwd: Call for Papers: Semantic Interoperability and Standardization in the IoT (SIS-IoT) workshop @SEMANTiCS 2017
by Marco Hogewoning 23 Jun '17

Dear Colleagues, Please find attached a call for papers that we received for a workshop in Amsterdam later this year on Semantic Interoperability and Standardization in the IoT. If this is of interest to you, please note the deadline for submissions is July 7. Regards, Marco Hogewoning RIPE NCC > ******************************************************************************* > CfP 1st International Workshop on Semantic Interoperability and Standardization in the IoT (SIS-IoT 2017)https://2017.semantics.cc/satellite-events/sis-iot-semantic-interoperability-and-standardization-iot <https://2017.semantics.cc/satellite-events/sis-iot-semantic-interoperabilit…> > > CHAIRS > Laura Daniele (TNO), Anna Fensel (Semantic Technology Institute, Innsbruck), Raúl García-Castro (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid), Enrico Scarrone (Telecom Italia and ETSI SmartM2M), Omar Elloumi (Nokia and oneM2M) > > TIME > Monday, September 11, 2017 - 09:00 to 17:30 > > PLACE > Amsterdam, The Meervaart (Room 4) @SEMANTiCS 2017 <https://2017.semantics.cc/> > > DESCRIPTION > Semantic technology and linked data are perceived by the IoT industry as beneficial technologies to enable semantic interoperability in the fragmented landscape of IoT ecosystems and platforms. However, most industrial practitioners are not familiar with these technologies and are not willing to learn them, as they believe the learning curve is too steep. IoT developers - whether device manufacturers or application developers - ask for rather simple ontologies that are easy to use, and clear guidelines on how to implement semantic web/ linked data solutions, possibly supported by standards development organizations (SDOs), whereas the information they can currently find on the Internet is overwhelming and perceived as not directly applicable. As we have often heard from industrial stakeholders in the past years, there is a clear need to bring semantic technology out of the research labs - where it has been successful so far - to be adopted and applied in operational environments by the IoT industry. > > The main objective of this workshop is to bring SDOs and industrial practitioners in IoT with an interest in semantic interoperability together with the strong and successful research community at SEMANTiCS 2017 to discuss current trends and challenges in Semantic Interoperability and Standardization in IoT. > > WORKSHOP STYLE > The workshop will be a combination of presentations on existing standardization activities on semantics and IoT (state of the art), e.g., SAREF activities in ETSI and oneM2M, and contributions from users on their on-going standardization and research developments on semantic interoperability in IoT (current progress beyond the state of the art), as basis for generating an interactive discussion and bring the collaboration between the research community and the industrial stakeholders a step further. The workshop will include a keynote from Omar Elloumi, the “IoT Evangelist of the Year” (https://www.realwire.com/releases/IoT-Evangelist-of-the-Year-prize-for-oneM… <https://www.realwire.com/releases/IoT-Evangelist-of-the-Year-prize-for-oneM…>), and a panel with experts from the research community and industrial stakeholders. > > Contributions from users on their on-going standardization and research developments on semantic interoperability in IoT should be submitted in the form of research papers (max 8 pages) or short papers (2 to 4 pages). Authors of accepted papers will be invited to give a presentation at the workshop. Accepted papers will published in the workshop proceedings. As a result of the workshop we also aim at publishing an overview paper/workshop report in a relevant journal or magazine. > > CALL FOR PAPERS > We solicit contributions in the form of research papers (max 8 pages) or short papers (2 to 4 pages). Authors of accepted papers will be invited to give a presentation at the workshop. > > Relevant topics of interest include the use of (ontology) standards for solving semantic interoperability issues along the following lines: > Cross-cutting IoT semantic interoperability approaches reusing standards > Use cases and implementations from pilots, innovation and research projects > Current trends in standardization bodies related to IoT > IoT standardization in vertical sectors (Smart Cities, Industrial Applications, Ageing Well, Smart Agriculture, Smart Energy, Wearables, Smart Appliances, Cooperative and Connected Mobility, etc.) > Alignment of ontology standards among standardization bodies > Solutions for machine-to-machine semantic interoperability > Open source implementations > PAPER SUBMISSION > Papers should follow the ACM ICPS guidelines for formatting and must not exceed 8 pages in length for full papers and 4 pages for short papers, including references and optional appendices. The layout templates can be found here:http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates <http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates>. All accepted full papers and short papers will be published in the workshop proceedings. Papers should be submitted through the EasyChair submission system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sisiot2017 <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sisiot2017>) > Papers must be submitted in PDF (Adobe's Portable Document Format) format. Other formats will not be accepted. For the camera-ready version, the source files (Latex, WordPerfect, Word) will also be needed. > > IMPORTANT DATES > July 7, 2017: deadline to submit papers > July 28, 2017: notifications to authors > August 14, 2017: camera ready versions > September 11, 2017: workshop > > PROGRAMME COMMITTEE (to be confirmed) > Nicolas Seydoux, LAAS > Victor Charpenay, Siemens AG > Kris McGlinn, Trinity College Dublin > Pieter Pauwels, Ghent University > María Poveda Villalón, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) > Mahdi Ben Alaya, Sensinov > Maxime Lefrancois, Ecole des Mines de Saint-Etienne > Pieter Colpaert, IMEC > Fano Ramparany, Orange > > ATTENDING THE WORKSHOP > The SIS-IoT 2017 workshop is co-located with the SEMANTICS 2017 conference. > Participants of the workshops at SEMANTiCS2017 will be charged a marginal fee to cover the basic costs. For regular conference attendees, the workshops are included in the conference ticket. > Registration for the SIS-IoT 2017 is mandatory as space is limited. Registration has to be performed through the main conference registration system. > >

[iot-discussion] Mark Warner on IoT security

Greetings folks, My United States Senator, Mark Warner, has penned an excellent article on the roles government & the private sector can (& should) play in IoT security: https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/senator-mark-warner-us-iot-secur… It is well worth a read in its entirety. IMHO there are several ideas in there worth discussing in this working group.
