This special track has the purpose to bring together researchers, experts, and practitioners from academia,industry, and government, to discuss current trends in research, practices, and education efforts of IoT. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of smart objects with pervasive and autonomous communication through internet connectivity. Its vision is to leverage Internet standards in order to interconnect all types of embedded devices (e.g., patient monitors, medical sensors, congestion monitoring devices, traffic-light controls, temperature sensors, smart meters, etc.) and real-world objects, and thus to make them a part of the Internet and provide overall interoperability. Therefore, IoT aim at building a future of connected devices that is truly open, flexible, and scalable. 

To this end, the IoT has been emerged as a powerful and promising technology with significant technical,

social and economic impacts. However, there are also lots of challenges to overcome to realize the potential benefits of IoT, particularly toward the Industry 4.0. The track intends to foster the identification of the challenges facing IoT and approaches for solving them for Industry 4.0 application.

With respect to this, the special track is directed to discuss present and future opportunities embracing the IoT for Industry 4.0 application. Some questions we invite contributors to this special track to ask are:

1.  What IoT standards can be used for Industry 4.0 application?
2. What is the influence and the role of the IoT in Industry 4.0?

Theoretical and empirical researches – also case studies, adopting qualitative, quantittative or mixed methods are encouraged. In relation to this, we are looking for a wide range of papers contributing on the topic for the roles and applications in the field of business process modelling toward Industry 4.0.

Authors may include in the manuscripts the following topics:

1. IoT Architectures, Systems andTestbeds
2. IoT Standards
3. Networking Technologies for IoT      
4. Protocols and Algorithms for IoT 
5. Data Management for IoT       
6. Power Management for IoT-         
7. Data Analytics for IoT     
8. Cognitive IoT
9. Identity Management in IoT     
10. Security and Privacy of IoT   
11. Social and Human Aspects in IoT       
12. Cloud Computing and IoT     
13. Body sensor networks   
14. Intelligent Transportation Systems      
15. Smart Grids       
16. Smart Homes and Smart Cities        
17. Smart Agriculture  
18. Industrial IoT Application        
19. Consumer IoT Applications
