                           CALL FOR PAPERS

We invite submissions to the first Living in the Internet of Things
conference, a joint PETRAS, IoTUK and IET event, which will be held in
London in March 2018. We are already living in a world of interconnected
devices, and as the “Second Digital Revolution” proceeds apace we see
exciting opportunities and new challenges. The Living in the Internet of
Things conference will be an open forum for providing insight into how
society can benefit from the power of IoT while remaining safe, secure
and resilient.

The conference is distinctive in its sociotechnical scope, embracing
technical disciplines together with the social sciences, to explore
critical issues in privacy, ethics, trust, reliability, acceptability,
and security. We especially welcome papers which reflect experience and
emerging practice in addressing these areas.

The themes and topics listed below are examples and not intended as an
exhaustive list. As well as these cross-cutting topics we welcome papers
which focus on specific domains, e.g. healthcare, home, entertainment
(toys and games), transport, cities, energy, environment, manufacturing,
industrial control and critical infrastructure.

Adoption and acceptability

* Design principles for adoption and acceptability
* Case studies in home, public spaces, campus
* Codes of practice

* Usable security for IoT
* Human factors in securing IoT infrastructures
* Security and safety in industrial IoT
* IoT threats and attack vectors

* Security in mobile and wireless communications

Privacy and trust

* Design principles for trust and privacy
* Data sharing, analytics and preserving privacy
* Authentication and access control in IoT
* Mechanisms for consent
* Location and mobility privacy
* IoT privacy modelling and analysis
* Anonymous data mining and data sharing
* Information hiding
* Trust and security in the supply chain
* Standards, governance and policy

Regulatory gaps

* Consent and data protection
* Security by default / design principles
* Certification and best practices
* Liability and cyber risk Insurance
* Policy approaches to resilient IoT
* Public and private governance approaches
* International political dimension
* Cultures of security

Harnessing economic value

* Value of personal data and analytics
* Uses of blockchain for IoT
* Use of IoT technology for Industry 4.0
