Green IoT for Energy Efficiency and Environmental Sustainability
The growth of IoT has resulted in improving connectivity amongst devices worldwide. Green IoT represents the energy efficient procedures adopted by IoT devices to achieve a sustainable and safer world. In order to green the IoT, it will be necessary to use less energy, look for new resources, reduce the negative effects of the IoT on human health, and cause less environmental disruption.

Federated Machine Learning and Edge Systems
At QCon Plus 2021, Katharine Jarmul spoke about machine learning on edge devices using federated machine learning. Some key takeaways were: federated machine learning is useful for edge devices with limited network bandwidth and can improve data privacy; and learning on edge devices can improve data diversity and allow for predictions even when the device is no longer connected.

Local-First Cooperation: Autonomy at the Edge, Secured by Crypto, 100% Available
Why do two local devices need the cloud to be able to communicate? Shouldn't we be able to enable robust cooperation between nearby computing devices? This idea is the realm of local-first cooperation. In what follows, the author discusses the technologies used to make it function and a few places where work is still needed.

Web of Things over IoT and Its Applications
We all are more or less familiar with the term IoT, but what is WoT and how does IoT relate to WoT? How much is WoT required in our society? What are the possible applications of WoT? Are there any applications enabling WoT actually in the market? In this article, we will try to explore the answers to these questions.

Programming Microcontrollers with JavaScript -- Q&A with Peter Hoddie and Lizzie Prader
JavaScript developers can now write IoT software on a large range of devices, including low-specs micro-controllers with as little as 32KB of memory. As the TC53 committee and companies like Moddable create standards and software for the interoperability of heterogeneous hardware, IoT companies may tap in a large pool of JavaScript developers, and leverage the productivity of a scripting language.
