The 10th anniversary of the World Forum on the Internet of Things (WF-IoT2024) marks a significant milestone for this
distinguished IEEE IoT conference and gathering. Recognized as a premier event in the IoT landscape, WF-IoT serves as a vital
platform for both academic and industry professionals passionate about Internet of Things (IoT) advancements. WF-IoT will provide
a forum for original technical papers and presentations that address the Internet of Things (IoT), its theoretical
and technological building blocks, the applications that drive the growth and evolution of IoT, operational considerations,
experimentation, experiences from deployments, and the impacts of IoT on consumers, the research community, the public
sector, as well as commercial and industrial sectors. This anniversary edition promises to uphold the tradition of fostering
collaboration, knowledge exchange, and exploration of the latest trends and innovations within the dynamic realm of the Internet
of Things. The theme for WF-IoT2024 is “Unleashing the power of IoT with AI”, focusing on aspects of IoT that cover most of our planet
and the near-space environment. The World Forum will be held in-person.
