A Call for Technology Leaders and Innovators
IEEE,
Internet2, and
the National Science Foundation (NSF) as well as a host of other sponsors are working together to gather industry technologists who can help drive the Internet of Things (IoT) conversation and contribute to the development of an open architectural framework.
On Thursday, 4 February 2016, IEEE has organized
"IEEE End-to-End Trust and Security for the Internet of Things," a workshop that will be held at George Washington University. Together with our sponsors, we are seeking qualified technology leaders and innovators to participate as presenters and attendees at this invitation-only event.
A Call for Presentations Industry, government, and academic professionals, including researchers, IT architects, security professionals, government agencies, industry associations, professors, and post-graduate students, are encouraged to develop and submit presentations that express viewpoints, make recommendations, and further the discussion on the subject of end-to-end trust and security for an open IoT architectural framework. Submissions should address the TIPPSS elements: trust, identity, privacy, protection, security, and safety.
The submissions will be reviewed, and the top fifteen selected will be presented at the IoT workshop on 4 February in Washington DC. Submissions that address policy will also be eligible for presentation at the "
IEEE Experts in Technology and Policy (ETAP) Forum," which will take place at the same location on the following day.
Deadline Extended for Presentation Submissions Submissions will be accepted for consideration from Monday, 4 January 2016 until midnight (EST), Wednesday, 20 January 2016. IEEE is looking for deep-diving technical presentations. Preference will be given to submissions that focus on the interaction of technology and policy in the areas of trust, identity, privacy, protection, security, and safety. Selected submissions will have only fifteen minutes to present an overview and a conclusion. If you have any questions, please email us. We encourage you to share this information with your colleagues and other experts in end-to-end trust and security and the development of an open architecture for the Internet of Things. To request your invitation to the "IEEE End-to-End Trust and Security for the Internet of Things" workshop, please complete our online form. Registration to the Friday, 5 February "IEEE Experts in Technology and Policy (ETAP) Forum" is also by invitation, and capacity is limited. If you would like to attend, please request an invitation by completing the online form. |
