[C-IoT Management] FW: IoT speakers, posters and demos requested for two upcoming events

[Geoff Merrett]

Dear C-IoT Management Group,

You should have seen this email (below) that I sent out at the end of last week. Please can I encourage you to:

1)      consider submitting something yourself and encouraging your PhD students and postdocs to do so too, and

2)      spread the message around your research group to encourage others

The events are trying to build community and collaboration, both internally and externally. These are two of the Centre's key objectives and success metrics - but will only work if the community engages.

Cheers,

Dr Geoff Merrett

Subject: IoT speakers, posters and demos requested for two upcoming events

Dear ECS research staff and students,

The recently formed ECS Centre for Internet of Things and Pervasive Systems (C-IoT) is holding two launch events around the end of this month. We are seeking presenters, posters and demos for both: if you have research interests in IoT, please keep reading. Note, the submission deadline for abstracts is 08 June.

1) C-IoT Launch Event | 26 June from 14:00-16:00
This event will bring together researchers with an interest in IoT from across ECS, to increase awareness of ongoing activities and to fuel future collaboration and engagement.

*         The primary format of the event is posters: if you're a member of academic staff, we welcome a poster on your (and your team's) IoT research interests; if you're a PhD student or postdoc, we welcome a poster on your research project.

*         To submit an abstract, please complete the short form at https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=-XhTSvQpPk2-iWadA62p2E9DViO7AyJAp_i6H9bgxeBUMUVLOUQwN1NJU1MwVDkwUEk5V0ZRTVBDTS4u.

*         The submission deadline is Friday 08 June. You will be notified on Monday 11 June whether or not we can accommodate your poster/demo and, if we can, you will have until Friday 15 June to submit your poster (the Centre will pay for and arrange printing).

*         If you do not have anything to present, but would like to attend to get a feel for IoT research in ECS, please make a note of the date in your calendar. Further details will be circulated nearer the time.

2) C-IoT Afternoon on IoT Security | 03 July from 14:00-16:30
This event will reach beyond ECS, with speakers and attendees from other faculties and industry. This first event in a series will focus on aspects of IoT Security.

*         The event will be a series of short talks, supplemented by a small number of relevant posters and demos.

*         If you are a member of academic staff, and are interested in giving a 10-minute talk, please drop me an email at gvm at ecs.soton.ac.uk<mailto:gvm at ecs.soton.ac.uk>

*         If you would like to present a poster or demo on your research related to IoT security, please complete the short form at https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=-XhTSvQpPk2-iWadA62p2E9DViO7AyJAp_i6H9bgxeBUREdXT0ZBMFNVUkJJOVpCRjBZMU4xVzIzMC4u

*         The submission deadline is Friday 08 June.

*         If you do not wish to present, but are interested in IoT security, please make a note of the date in your calendar. Further details will be circulated nearer the time.

Finally, if you are interested in IoT but haven't yet registered your interest with the Centre (it means you go on our IoT mailing list), please complete the form at https://goo.gl/forms/iM8t1M78YV4bCxtq1 (note much of this is optional to fill out).
