M4IOT 2016 - The 3d Workshop on Middleware for Context-Aware Applications in the IoT (M4IOT 2016)

The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm enables the development of new services and mass market applications in multiple domains such as mobile marketing, social networks, smart cities, health care, and business processes. These applications consume high-level context data computed by processing and filtering numerous raw context data collected from the physical environment.
Those applications are based upon cooperating services, which have to be designed and dynamically composed. For instance, those services manage heterogeneous context data, distribute both processing and flows of data, manage the quality of context for appropriate decision-making, enhance privacy of personal context data, and identify situations from data coming both from the IoT and from knowledge bases.
Providing context-aware applications in the IoT necessitates the interaction of numerous heterogeneous services deployed in a multiscale complex distributed architecture.
