In the last few years, a stimulating idea is fast emergingin the
wireless scenario: the pervasive presence around us of a variety of
"things" or "objects", such as RFID, sensors, actuators, mobile
phones, which, through unique addressing schemes, are able to
interact with each other and cooperate with their neighboring
"smart" c- ponents to reach common goals. This novel paradigm,
named "The Internet of Things" (IoT) continues on the path set by
the concept of smart environments and paves the way to the depl-
ment of numerous applications with a signi cant impact on many elds
of future every-day life. In this context, logistics, Intelligent
Transportation Systems (ITS), business/process management,assisted
living, and e-health are only a few examples of possible
application elds in which this novel paradigm will play a leading
role in the next future. Actually,manychallengingissues still
needto be addressedand both technolo-
calandsocialnodesuntiedbeforethe
IoTideabeingwidelyaccepted.Centralissues are making a full
interoperabilityof such devices possible, enablingtheir adaptation
and autonomousbehavior, as well as guaranteeingtrust, privacy,and
security. Also, the IoT idea poses several new
problemsconcerningthe networkingaspects. In fact, the "things"
composing the IoT will be characterized by low resources in terms
of both computation and energy capacity. Accordingly, the proposed
solutions need to payspecial attentionto resourceef ciencybesides
the obviousscalability problems. The papers included in this volume
present a picture of the current state of the art on the above
issues; more speci cally, concepts and ideas are discussed on n-
working, middleware, security and privacy, RFID and sensor
networks, as well as electromagnetic aspects.
