IoTCrawler is inviting you to define and discuss the Internet of Things search engine of the future.

We invite you to join us at the IoT Week to explore how future search engines would look like based on several scenarios form smart energy, smart city, social IoT, Industry 4.0 and smart environment perspectives. The IoTCrawler session will challenge you to think ahead into the realm of novel technologies, business concepts, user experiences and ground breaking paradigms around indexing, discovery and search.

Dr. Mahmoud Daneshmand, Stevens Institute of Technology, will chair and open the session. Dr. Antonio Skarmeta, University of Murcia and Dr. Payam Barnaghi, University of Surrey will provide the introduction to the IoT Crawler idea and search in general. Several Scenario pitches from the IoT Crawler partners ranging from industrial applications, smart city to healthcare will be the foundation for the panel discussion.

IoTCrawler (www.iotcrawler.eu) is a three-year long research project focusing on developing a “Search Engine” for Internet of Things (IoT) devices and their data/services.
