The premature aging of IoT systems is one of the most challenging topics that need to be addressed to enable widespread usage. Both hardware and the software that is deployed on devices from small sensor nodes to edge devices or the cloud need to be considered holistically, such that deployment lifetimes can be counted in decades not years. With ever changing communication protocols, company-specific software platforms and quickly deprecated hardware components, IoT is at the forefront of uncertain futures, and these technical challenges need to be solved for a sustainable future. In this workshop, we focus on issues arising from the brittle nature of current IoT systems.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:

• Full papers describing novel research ideas that have already been empirically evaluated.
• Short papers describing novel research ideas that have not been empirically evaluated, but are relevant for discussion

List of Topics

The main topics of interests include (but are not limited to):

• Abstractions and Digital Twins for fewer constraints
• Adaptive processing of IoT data streams
• Aging AI models
• Continuous and lifelong learning for IoT applications
• Flexible deployments
• Real-world examples and case studies
• Retrofitting features and security
• Software design patterns for sustainable/robust IoT
• Software update planning
