The workshop

The Internet of Everything (IoE) model envisions integrating people, data, processes, and things, enhancing traditional systems to enrich human lives. A central challenge in IoE lies in evolving from simple "connections among things" to a dynamic network of "connections among people, processes, data, and things." As these connections become more complex, meeting the demands of future systems requires not only hybrid intelligence, where human and autonomous agents work collaboratively, but also fully Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions capable of operating independently within the IoE ecosystem.

This workshop unites scientific and industrial communities to discuss, propose, define, and evaluate models supporting hybrid and artificial intelligence in interconnected IoE ecosystems. Such approaches allow for adaptable systems where AI can assist human operators or operate autonomously to address complex challenges across various domains. The workshop also aims to create a collaborative research agenda, highlighting future directions in hybrid and artificial-only IoE models and implementations. This rapidly advancing domain has garnered significant attention from academic and industry circles alike. Since 2020, over 1,700 publications have explored IoE-related concepts such as 6G networks, healthcare applications, and edge and fog computing architectures. By providing a platform for researchers and practitioners, this workshop encourages the exchange of innovative ideas, simulations, and real-world applications, inviting participants to tackle existing challenges and pose new ones within hybrid and autonomous IoE frameworks.

Paper submission

Authors are invited to submit papers at most 6 pages long. Submissions must be original (i.e., not previously published) and not currently under review by any other conference or journal. Authors must anonymize their submissions so that their identities are not disclosed to reviewers. To promote early dissemination, submission to arXiv (or similar) is allowed, provided cross-citations are not made.

Accepted papers will be published in IEEE Xplore as part of the DCOSS-IoT 2025 proceedings. The latter are indexed in the IEEE Xplore Library, SCOPUS and other digital libraries. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work in a plenary session as part of the main workshop program.

Authors are encouraged to use LaTeX to simplify paper compliance to the conference template. The latex template is provided by IEEE and can be downloaded here. Please, refer to the conference website for all the additional information about the submission (e.g., preparation of the paper, copyright, etc).

Submission is made through the EasyChair platform. Make sure to select the correct track (The 1st International Workshop on Hybrid Intelligence for Internet of Everything Models and Implementations (HIEMI 2025)) upon paper submission.
