IEEE WF-IoT2024 would like to invite researchers, scientists, and industrial engineers involved with the Internet of Things (IoT) to organize Special Sessions that will concentrate on emerging and important topics in IoT. A key aspect of Special Sessions is that they should be coherent, relevant to IoT, timely and informative, while not overlapping with the content of the traditional technical paper program.
Special Sessions offer a platform to delve into specific IoT domains, fostering interdisciplinary discussions and facilitating collaborations. Organizers have the opportunity to shape the agenda, inviting contributors to explore various facets of the chosen topic. Additionally, one paper per session can be designated as a Keynote Talk, enhancing visibility and impact.
We strongly encourage submissions from both academia and industry, as well as proposals for sessions led by industry experts. Organizers play a pivotal role in ensuring the quality of papers selected for their session, actively soliciting contributions and shaping the program.
Submission Deadline: Proposals for Special Sessions are due by March 31, 2024.
