Call for papers

The future Internet is expected to interconnect and to make interoperable heterogeneous and smart objects in order to realize the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT). This will allow for implementing pervasive and living environments for the benefit of several applications, such as environmental monitoring, building automation, healthcare, smart cities, smart grid, logistics. There are key emerging hardware technologies and innovative software architectures and functionalities that still need to be developed to make it a reality, which should mostly introduce distributed intelligence for a reliable and effective processing of the information about the physical world that should provide a complete knowledge to the top running applications. With this special issue, we invite authors to submit original research and review articles mainly focused on technological, architectural and practical innovations in the field of smart technologies and architectures enabling the Internet of Things.
