The First IEEE International Conference on Internet Operating Systems (IEEE ICIOS 2012)
March 21-23, 2012
Hyatt Regency, Irvine, CA, USA

Analogous to a desktop operating system, an Internet Operating System (IOS) brings together
computational technologies that allow users to manage Internet resources (including documents,
devices and applications). Unlike a desktop operating system, however, an Internet Operating
System involves millions of people and it requires technologies that can stimulate the
generation of content from a wide spectrum of human activities including personal,
professional, cultural, social, and many others.

Interdisciplinary (Intra-disciplinary within Computer Science) in nature, the ultimate success
of IOS requires new, synergized technologies be developed from various disciplines such as
Computer Science, Social Sciences, Engineering, Physical Sciences, Medicine, Law, Business
and Humanities. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

* Modeling and Realization of Human Activities with the Internet
* Search Engine and Question Answering
* Service Discovery and Composition
* Internet Resource Management
* Internet Activity Management
* Internet of Things
* Internet Device Management
* Human-Computer Interface
* Architecture of Internet OS
* Engineering & Tools for Application Development
* Communication Technologies
* Embedded Systems and Real-time Applications
* Privacy and Security
* Semantic Web and Internet Operating Systems
