'IoT-enabled IS Transform Business and Life' Track - Description

In an Internet of Things (IoT) environment, people, animals, products,
assets, computing devices, machines etc. (things) are uniquely identifiable
and they can send over the network information and knowledge about their
properties (e.g. identity, status, location, origin, history, ownership) and
their surrounding environment. IoT technologies (e.g. sensors, RFID, NFC)
are deployed in 'things' of our everyday life and collect and transmit their
status data in information systems. In other words, IoT signals a society
where humans, computers, things are connected and communicate at any time
and place.
Considering that over 50 billion 'things' are expected to be connected with
the Internet by 2020, the direct, IoT-enabled access to their information
paves the way for a huge variety of applications that are expected to
revolutionize every aspect of our daily business and social routine. For
example, the big data collected from the connected 'things' can fuel
business performance improvements because their analysis can provide new
business insights that can support rapid, more effective decision making.
Respectively, a 'smart' home can monitor elderly people to prevent harmful
events. Generally, home automation, healthcare, recycling, product lifecycle
management, supply chain management and environment monitoring are just a
few of the IoT application areas.
Topics include but are not limited to:
.	Design science models for IoT services (e.g. system architectures,
design principles, middleware solutions, etc.)
.	Data analytics and Big data for IoT ecosystems
.	Data quality challenges of IoT
.	Ecological impact of IoT
.	IoT effect on business processes and performance
.	Digitalization of industry and economy based on IoT
.	IoT effect on human/ employee behavior
.	Cost vs. Benefit Evaluation of IoT applications
.	Implications of IoT for change in organizational life
.	IoT and users interactions
.	IoT-enabled Green organizations
.	Smart Cities 
.	Privacy and security for IoT services
.	IoT Applications and Services:  home automation, healthcare, etc
