2020 - IoT4Emergency: IoT for emergency management

The first international workshop on Internet of Things for Emergency Management (IoT4Emergency) will be held in Malmö, Sweden on October 6, 2020. The workshop is hosted by Malmö University, collocated with IoT2020.
IoT4Emergency aims to bring together academics and practitioners who use information and communication technologies to design emergency services. The accepted and presented papers will be published in the IoT2020 Conference Companion Proceedings, which will be indexed in ACM Digital Library.
The Internet of Things (IoT) has changed our approach to safety systems by connecting sensors and providing real-time data to managers and endangered people in emergencies, such as fires, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and even overcrowding. Furthermore, the recent situation regarding COVID-19 presents an unprecedented and extended emergency impacting humans’ social and economic life. IoT4Emergency is a venue to gather researchers and practitioners who use information and communication technologies to address issues that happen before, during, and after an emergency.
