TENSYMP 2015

13 - 15 May 2015 | Ahmedabad (India)

Organised by: IEEE Gujarat Section
THEME: Internet of Things
The Internet of Things (IoT) envisions a self-conguring and adaptive complex system made out of networks of sensors and smart objects. IoT
has become a household name these days because it relates to all "things" that could interconnect starting from a tiny toy to a giant turbine or a
ghter plane. It covers all types of sensors, communication protocols, computational tools, techniques, devices, processors, embedded
systems, data warehousing, big data, cloud computing, server farms, grid computing etc. It encompasses development of tools, techniques and
standards for making these "things" intelligent, programmable and more capable of addressing the needs of human beings and/or other
"things". Therefore IoT is considered to be the most disruptive technological revolution since the existence of the Internet. Projections indicate
that over ten times more objects will be connected to the Internet by 2020 than the population of the world.
Call for Papers
Prospective authors are invited to submit original research papers (not being considered for publication elsewhere)
in describing new theoretical and/or experimental research in the following standard IEEE conference template
tacks (but are not limited to) of Internet of Things.
The length of the paper must not exceed 4 pages (including gures, tables, references and appendices).
Submissions that do not meet the page limit and IEEE format guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their
merits.
All submissions will go through the blind peer review process if they do not contain plagiarized material (including self-plagiarism, nd
