Dear Colleagues,
The 1st International Workshop on the Web of Things for Humans (WOT4H 2020) will be held on 9 June 2020, in Helsinki, Finland. WoT4H is a forum for academics, industrial researchers, developers, and practitioners to discuss challenges and advances in the Internet of Things and Web of Things. This forum will be particularly focused on “The Web of Things for Humans”, improving the interoperability and adaptation of smart devices to Humans. More information about the workshop can be found at the following link: http://wot4h.spilab.es
