Call for Papers

Complementing the topics of IEEE Global IoT Summit 2017, this workshopwill bring together members from different research communities and industrial practitioners to systematically explore the challenges, issues and opportunities in the research, design, and engineering of energy-harvesting and energy-neutral techniques for Internet of Things.These are a technological cornerstone for future IoT applications and innovative solutions in device hardware, energy scavenging, communication protocols, energy adaptive algorithms, and power management policies are the ultimate frontiers. High quality original technical articles are solicited, describing advances in Energy Neutral IoT, enabling technologies, as well as those which describe practical deployments and implementation experiences.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

•     Experiences from real-world low-power IoT applications and deployments;
•     Ultra low power communications;
•     Middleware support and services which support interoperability between zero-energy networks     
•     Low Power in Long range communication
•     Power management algorithms for energy harvesting sensing systems;
•     Concepts, algorithms and circuits for energy harvesting sensing systems
•     Resilient energy-neutral IoT;
•     IoT—Internet of (battery-less) things;
•     Resource management and operating system support for energy harvesting sensing systems
•     Network-wide distributed energy management (e.g. routing )
•     Energy efficient communication protocols
•     Ultra-low power IoT Technologies and Embedded Systems Architectures
