Talk at Internet of Things (IoT) Week 2017

We are at Internet of Things (IoT) Week 2017 in Geneva from 6th to 9th of June. The 7th edition of the IoT Week is a major conference on the Internet of Things that gathers over 200 sessions and activities to access the latest developments in the Internet of Things domain: emerging technologies, security and privacy, sustainable development, industry and market evolution.

The Data Semantics Lab and the Connected Experience Lab jointly presented a project, named “Enabling the Smart District Paradigm via Low-Cost, Nomadic Infrastructure” in the Exhibition Area. Moreover, Professor Maria Sokhn gave a very interesting talk at the Panel Session entitled “Sustainable Development Goals – IoT for Inclusiveness and Reduced Inequalities”. In these presentations, we proposed an approach for extending the Smart City paradigm beyond large cities, in a quick and cost-effective way, based on the nomadic IoT infrastructure, crowdsourcing, and active involvement of local communities.
