The eighth IEEE Internet of Things (IoT) Vertical and Topical Summit at Radio & Wireless Week(RWW) is devoted to the impact and roles that artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning(AI/ML) play in IoT system applications and solutions. The summit is cosponsored by the multi-Society IEEE IoT Technical Community and the IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society. The summit consists of invited talks and moderated panels with open discussions between presenters and all summit participants. The summit is delivered in five (5) sessions each devoted to either the technological basis of IoT Systems or Vertical Applications.  

IoT services and offerings have experienced significant growth over the last few years, and the use of AI/ML has affected almost all aspects of the IoT across verticals and application lifecycles. Wireless systems play a crucial role as a key enabler in several ways. The first is as the essential infrastructure layer for connectivity in IoT systems. The second is as sensors and sensor networks that provide the data that subsequently drive control, management, operation, and planning functions in IoT applications. Existing and emerging AI/ML capabilities affect the way we design, build, and operate wireless systems and, at the same time, promise new and much greater levels of “intelligence” and performance for IoT solutions and applications. The summit is focused on the use of AI/ML for:

You will find the summit stimulating and rewarding if you are a policy maker, an administrator, a product manager, a technologist, a practicing electronics engineer, or a researcher or if you are just curious about the progress and promise of the roles of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (AI/ML) in IoT system designs, applications and solutions.

Please join us in person or online for the hybrid portion of the program during 21 and 22 January 2026 in Hollywood, CA, USA, and live online virtually.  We look forward to your active participation as an attendee or as a presenter
