Recently, most of real world physical entities are connected
together with the digital world through wired and wireless
networks through the Internet. This connection is facilitated
by diverse technologies provided by many researchers from
different disciplines. To name few of these technologies that
became common are sensors, RFIDs, short- and long-range
communications, intelligent objects, and mobile devices.

This workshop aims to bring together researchers in an effort
to highlight the state-of-the-art and discuss the issues and
opportunities to explore new research directions and develop
new ideas for the Internet of Ubiquitous and Pervasive Things.

The International Workshop on Internet of Ubiquitous and
Pervasive Things will take place in conjunction with the 2nd
International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and
Technologies (ANT-2011), Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada in
