About the Conference

The IFIP IoT Conference is a prestigious international event dedicated to the research, innovation, and application of the Internet of Things (IoT). In its 9th year, it will be held in UAEU, Al Ain, UAE/Hybrid*.

*Please Note: Presenters of accepted papers who are genuinely unable to travel due to valid organizational restrictions may formally request an online presentation slot.

Because IoT research is multidisciplinary by nature, the event accommodates a comprehensive scope of topics. Core areas range from low-level communication network protocols and embedded hardware systems to data analytics, machine learning frameworks, and critical investigations into social, legal, ethical, and economic aspects.
