This position concerns participation in research projects of the Internet of Things and People research center (see http://iotap.mah.se) in collaboration with a number of industrial partners.

The Internet of Things (IoT) enables the objects in our environment to sense, act, and share information. In order to develop successful products and services that are meaningful and useful, the perspective of the users must be integrated in IoT research. The research at IoTaP focuses on three areas that are crucial for the advance of the Internet of Things:
• interaction technology; how users interact with the connected devices,
• user-centered development; how users can be involved in the development of new IoT services and products, and
• embedded intelligence; how intelligence embedded in the devices can improve the usability and functionality of IoT services and products.

This position is within embedded intelligence and interaction technology, and relates to data mining, adaptive and learning systems, with a particular focus on context-awareness to create engaging user experiences and meaningful designs. The research will be carried out in application areas that are of interest for the industrial partners, e.g. user-activity and self-tracking services. The purpose of these applications range from entertainment and well-being, to convenience and utility.
