The Swedish Institute of Computer Science is opening up a new research center on the Internet of Things. To kickstart this new initiative created in collaboration with Ericsson, Microsoft, KTH, Mobile Life, Stockholm University, and other businesses they are holding an IoT day on February 9th.
Speakers for the event include Mike Kuniavsky, Bu Fanjin, and a chance to discuss the topic with research leaders Kristina Höök, Ali Ghodsi and Adam Dunkels.
Description of the event:
"As opposed to other initiatives, The Swedish Internet of Things Centre will focus on the consumer. As consumers we look for technical solutions for everyday life, in our homes, in our pockets or even on our bodies – not primarily because they are useful but because they are fun or attractive. To create the future’s attractive consumer-oriented Internet of Things applications we need three basic competences: interaction design, handling of big data, and software to connect the embedded systems with the Internet. SICS has long experience and world class expertise in all three domains. At the Internet of Things Day you will meet the research leaders Kristina Höök, Ali Ghodsi and Adam Dunkels. Take this chance to chat with them and discuss what needs to be done and how we can do it together!"
