Building IoT call for papers: What have YOU done with the internet of things?

Reg Events There are just a few weeks until the call for papers for Building IoT London closes, and we really want to hear your real world stories of what the things on the internet are doing to your business.

We’ve got a cracking lineup of IoT luminaries to help us sort through the proposals, bringing expertise in the user end of the equation, the heavy lifting required to make sense of the data, keeping things secure, and the hard grind of actually developing a real world, value adding IoT technology.

So, here’s are some very brief bios of the programme committee for Building IOT:

Dr Boris Adryan: From 2008 to 2015 Boris lead a method development group at the University of Cambridge. Since 2013 he has been a consultant and hired hand for mostly London-based IoT companies. In 2016 he returned to Germany and joined Zühlke Engineering in Frankfurt to support their IoT and data analytics activities.

Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino is an interaction designer, product designer, and entrepreneur based in London. She is the founder of the Good Night Lamp, connected lamps for your global friends and family, and Director of IoT consultancy designswarm. Her clients include BBC R&D, Nokia, British Gas, EDF R&D and British Telecom. Her work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria & Albert Museum and galleries around the world.

Paul Fremantle is a researcher into the security and privacy of IoT at the University of Portsmouth. He co-founded the Open Source software company WSO2 where was CTO. Previously he was a Senior Technical Staff Member in the IBM Software Group. He is a regular speaker and has co-authored two books.

Damon Hart-Davis is lead on the OpenTRV open source project. He has freelanced in technology for over 30 years, delivering mission-critical projects in the City for more than 20 of those, and has founded and been involved in several startups, including a pioneering Internet Service Provider that helped crack open that market in the UK more than 20 years ago.

They will be joined by heise Developer’s Julia Schmidt, and Register Group Editor Joe Fay.

The committee will be getting together in late October to consider the proposals currently rolling in to our call for papers. The aim is to pull together a comprehensive program that doesn’t just outline the potential of the Internet of Things, but shows you how to design real world enterprise level IoT projects that are secure, and add value.

And we want to ensure everyone gets a chance to be heard. So, if you don’t have a corporate marketing department to help you polish your proposal, feel free to ask us for help.
