Abstract:
This edition of Around the World of IoT presents a summary of the IEEE World Forum on Internet of Things (WF-IoT 2019) that was held in April in Limerick, Ireland. Arriving at its fi fth edition, the WF-IoT is the fl agship event organized by the IEEE IoT Initiative, a multi-society activity gathering 20 IEEE member societies/ councils. Due to its wide range and outreach, the conference is a means for virtual travel to feel the pulse of IoT growth in the industry, academia and government domains, from many diff erent world regions. WF-IoT 2019 brought together researchers and practitioners who participated and contributed to a program that included both vertical (IoT applications) and topical (IoT technologies) tracks. Participants were able to learn about technology advances and research results, as well as discuss lessons learned from real-world deployments. This column shares highlights and useful links that will help the reader get a feel of where we are and what we can expect from the IoT in the next years. The journey does not end here, however. The World Forum of IoT will be stopping in April 2020 for its next edition in New Orleans, USA.
