[afren] Workshop on Scientific Applications for the Internet of Things (IoT) at ICTP

[Marco Zennaro]

The Telecommunications/ICT4D Laboratory (T/ICT4D) of the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP, Trieste, Italy) is organizing a Workshop on Scientific Applications for the
Internet of Things (IoT) to be held at the ICTP, Trieste, Italy, from 16 to 27 March 2015. This Workshop is co-sponsored by the International Telecommunications Union, Telecommunication Development Sector (ITU-D), by the Network Startup Resource Center (NSRC) based at the University of Oregon, and by the NetworkTheWorld Foundation. 

Topics will include:
IoT Architecture and Technologies
Low Power Wireless Communications
Sensor Technology
IPv6
Middleware Architecture
Security in IoT networks
Big Data Management and Visualization
Data Ethics

Scientists and students from all countries that are members of the United Nations, UNESCO or IAEA may attend this Workshop. As it will be conducted in English, participants should have an adequate working knowledge of this language. Although the main purpose of the Centre is to help research workers from developing countries, through a programme of training activities within a framework of international cooperation, students and postdoctoral scientists from developed countries are also welcome to attend. As a rule, travel and subsistence expenses of the participants should be borne by their home institution. Every effort should be made by candidates to secure support for their fare (or at least half-fare). However, limited funds are available for some participants, who are nationals of, and working in, a developing country. Such support is available only for those who attend the entire activity. There is no registration fee. 

Application Form can be accessed through the Workshop website: http://indico.ictp.it/event/a14233/
Deadline: 12 DECEMBER 2014
