Agenda and brief minutes for meeting on 1 June 2018





The Agenda was below but we ended up discussing some major themes for our cluster. Three major themes identified are: 
  • Blockchain for IoT: energy and food and other applications?
  • Smart things and infrastructure: smart things, robotic things, etc smart cities, smart agriculture, etc
  • Data analytics for IoT: various applications, from health to others 

Mohamed will try to coordinate a Samsung grant proposal. 


Original agenda:
:

1. Your proposal for Guest speakers?
(update: Dr. Joseph Liu from Monash will talk about blockchain in July)

2. Forming research subgroups on topics you want to learn/develop - what do we want to be good at in IoT in the next 1-3 years?
This could also relate to the DVCRs call for ideas (see attached word doc from DVCR as sent by Yong, I have also hosted it on
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-La3Am2VPjb1mrdsQvHHzcic5JR8fZVBcJyOnXRKsfg/edit?usp=sharing )

3. Workshops/Hackathon hosted at Deakin with industry persons? E.g., “IoT for Health”, “IoT for Food” etc… which topic?

4. Survey/review paper writing groups: you can lead/organize one?!
I have started one on “Applications of Blockchain to IoT” (with Frank, Qingyi, Amani – anyone interested to join? Next meeting on Monday 3pm in my room)
There are many emerging topics…. other proposed emerging areas to review:
- “IoT + Fog/Edge Computing in Space”: how IoT will be used in the emerging space industry and connecting to earth IoT
- “IoT for Food in the Smart City”: how IoT will revolutionize the ways with food in the smart city (from yesterday’s slide on food @ Deakin :-)
- “Aging in the Smart City”: how IoT could make living for the aged much better in the smart city
- etc… (you might have more of your own ideas?)
Other topics/areas could be here: http://ieee-iotj.org/special-issues/
We might also propose special issues as guest editors with a journal on a topic we want to learn about…

5. Grant applications: from a month ago, any developments in writing proposals for Samsung (due 12 June I think) and Huawei (datelines vary)?
And for Vichealth ARC Linkage partnerships?
Shall we form subgroups to work on them?

6. Rolando last meeting suggested hints on writing/targeting proposals for different schemes: we might discuss how to develop that

7. http://iotfestival.io/ Morshed and some others attending – perhaps they can give us a run-down of what happened in our next 15 June meeting(?)

Agenda and brief notes from 15 June DIoT cluster meeting

We started by going over the capabilities matrix and talking about some current projects. Then, Chandan talked about the iot festival. Agenda: 1. http://iotfestival.io/ Morshed, Chandan, Mohamed, and Lei + others who attended – perhaps you could give us a run-down of what happened? Any highlights/updates from the IoT world out there Further funding opportunities: a. Alibaba research funding sources now accepting proposals: USD50K-100K for a one-year project, dateline 1 st of July, multiple proposals from the same institution can be funded, there is an IoT edge computing topic mentioned - click on Research Area tab and then IoT, and download the description from: https://102.alibaba.com/fund/proposalAbout.htm (past projects here: https://102.alibaba.com/fund/proposalResult.htm ) (there are also topics in ML) (maybe we could all write a proposal each? J Or try to write/lead a proposal if you have an idea (e.g., it could be an extension of y

Arkady presented at the last meeting - 18 May 2018

Here comes Arkady's presentation at Deakin last Friday: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1t-Px1WTyPmPEYukV5Tg-XB9UuWVNtC1O   Title: Challenges and opportunities of IoT silos interoperability Abstract : After initial hype with deploying IoT platforms in various applications and building IoT silos, the IoT research community realised the need for IoT interoperability frameworks and building IoT ecosystems as the next step in IoT evolution. This talk will focus on the challenges and opportunities of IoT interoperability with highlights into OpenIoT platform which pioneered horizontal integration of IoT silos and EU Horizon-2020 project bIoTope – building IoT open innovation ecosystem for connected smart objects. The bIoTope ecosystem is based on everything-as-a-service (XaaS) driven by run-time context, reasoning about situations, semantics, continuous analytics. The primary application domain of biotope is Smart Cities. Bio : Professor Zaslavsky is a Senior Princ
