IoTime 2023 : 2st International Workshop on the Internet of Time-Critical Things

We cordially invite you to submit your paper to the 2nd International Workshop on the Internet of Time-Critical Things (IoTime 2023). IoTime Workshop is dedicated to exploring cutting-edge approaches in the entire IoT vertical, encompassing sensors towards applications, where time plays a vital role.


Held in conjunction with the 9th IEEE World Forum on Internet of Things (IEEE WFIoT2023) (https://wfiot2023.iot.ieee.org/) in Aveiro, Portugal, from 12–27 October 2023, IoTime Workshop provides a premier platform for researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to exchange ideas and present their latest advancements in time-critical applications for the Internet of Things. Collaborative robots, smart factories, autonomous systems, and virtual/mixed reality are just a few examples of the domains where accurate time and bounded latency computing and communications are crucial.

CALL FOR TECHNICAL PAPERS
---------------------------

Original, unpublished contributions are solicited in time-critical applications for the Internet of Things. Time is a crucial and sensitive matter in most IoT-based systems and applications. Smart factories, mobile and collaborative robots, autonomous systems, and virtual/mixed reality are examples of the next wave of applications that rely on accurate time and bounded (low) latency computing and communications. The IoTime Workshop looks for cutting-edge approaches in the whole IoT vertical - from sensors to applications - in which time plays a significant factor.

---------------------------
TOPICS
---------------------------
We invite submissions on the following topics (but not limited to):

- Real test-beds, proofs-of-concept, pilot site descriptions, and industry experience where time plays a crucial role.
- Time-sensitive networking (TSN), Wireless TSN, ultra-low latency, high-reliability communications
- Digital Twins to support time-critical networking in Industrial IoT
- Time-Critical IoT Applications
- Machine learning solutions and approaches for time-critical IoT-based systems
- Orchestration and Placement of computing and networking resources in the IoT Computer Continuum (Edge/Clod)
- Edge AI solutions, models, and applications for IoT applications to optimize or enable applications in which time plays a crucial role
- Performance Evaluation of time-critical IoT systems
- Reference Architectures for Time-Critical Things
- Management and Monitoring for Time-Critical Applications in IoT
- Efficient computing approaches for time-critical systems to decrease latency and computer resource usage
- Caching policies, strategies, and architectures at the network edge for time-critical IoT systems
