Resumo: [Excerpt] It is a pleasure to introduce the proceedings of the first edition of the 2022 European Alliance for
Innovation (EAI) Internet of Everything Conference (IoECon). The Internet of Everything (IoE)
is an emerging study area aimed at extending the IoT paradigms to their whole dimension,
intelligently connecting devices, people, processes, data, and things. IoE is multi-disciplinary and
offers an opportunity to explore the co-relations between different areas, techniques, and theories
about a new cyber world. This first conference and the community it is assembling focus on a
complete ecosystem that digitally interconnects everything, including people-to-people, people to-machines, and machines-to-machines. IoECon has emphasized the technological effects on
people, organizational processes, and the information security challenges from the accelerated
technological evolution. [...]

Título: Towards the adoption of Corporate Mobility as a Service (CMaaS): a case study
Autor: Amaral, António; Barreto, Luís; Pereira, Teresa; Baltazar, Sara
Resumo: The increasing level of awareness gained, by citizens in general and companies in particular, around the sustainability issues and of the climate change are producing changes in how organizations are dealing and projecting their future vision. Therefore, new managerial approaches are being embraced towards adopting a set of a strategies fully aligned with the reduction of the green- house gas emissions. Due to this increase evidence of sensitivity, organizations are embracing their role as stakeholders that need to contribute, throughout its corporate social agenda, to a responsible and smart policy promoting the imple- mentation of strategies that could endeavor the cultural shift of their workers, clients, suppliers, among others, towards effectively contributing to sustainability and social responsibility. The case study of a medium size company reported is related to a structural change in how the organization foresees its mobility behav- ior and how it intends to follow the concepts of Corporate Mobility as a Service (CMaaS). This case study discloses the strategies that have been implemented and the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) platform that has been developed towards having a broader view about the impacts of the mobility requested by all the organization. In addition, it is presented a group of Key Per- formance Indicator (KPI) that point the benefits attained with this effort as well as projecting the following steps that will support the CMaaS roadmap imple- mentation in the future.

Resumo: Recently, Mobility as a Service (MaaS) concept and its main theoretical approaches have been under discussion, to positively influence the future of mobility. Namely, by contextualizing MaaS’s role in modern societies explaining its main functions, characteristics, and attributes, as well as identifying all the stakeholders involved in this comprehensive challenge towards ensuring its widespread implementation. The environmental, societal, technological and cultural changes needed to ensure a sustainable mobility ecosystem are an utmost challenge that requires an intense effort and involvement of all different types of stakeholders within their perspectives, roles, responsibilities and contributions to the mobility system overall behavior and performance. Notwithstanding, the global tendency of digital transformation, also referred as digitization, in society and businesses are upbringing a new technological evolution that will lead to a new mobility paradigm bringing together MaaS and the internet of Mobility (IoM), thus creating what we call the Internet of Mobility as a Service (IoMaaS). The future trends of mobility will have to be ‘human-centric’, to properly balance the amount of technology requested into the ecosystem to ensure the whole system’s universality, to be inclusive, as well as developing the appropriate amount of technology, accordingly to the different users’ technological skills. Furthermore, different types of incentives and penalties need to be included in supporting a broad cultural shift regarding citizen’s mobility routines habits. This will be of great importance to ensure the sustainability of this new mobility paradigm as well as of the ability to attain all its benefits.

Título: Cybersecurity challenges in healthcare medical devices
Autor: Longras, Ana; Pereira, Teresa; Amaral, António
Resumo: Medical devices are rapidly evolving and becoming more interconnected with healthcare networks, overcoming resource constraints, and increasingly focused on patient well-being and needs.
This work intends to identify future research themes in the area of cybersecurity in health by surveying the articles being developed and identifying their current limitations and future work. The developed analysis was based on the publications with the highest number of citations, enabling us to find several challenges and restrictions such as integrating devices in systems.
Innovations and the emergence of new technologies with inherent security vulnerabilities, will continue to evolve, escalating the attackers interest in exploiting unknown cybersecurity risks within healthcare. It is mandatory to consider cybersecurity risks since the conception of the devices to reduce security flaws, ensure the patients with a better quality of life, and guarantee information security properties.

Título: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) on European Green Capitals (EGC) Fostering Circular Economy (CE): a preliminary study
Autor: Amaral, António Manuel Pereira da Silva; Baltazar, Sara; Barreto, Luís; Pereira, Teresa
Resumo: Nowadays we are facing the emergence of new challenges, especially focused on environmental behavior and climate change and also the effects and impacts of COVID-19 world pandemic - which can restrain the attainment of the desired sustainability. It is, then, mandatory to reply to all of these challenges through the design of specific paths to attain sustainable development in a collective approach, with the involvement and the commitment of the community and performed in an integrated way. Thus, it is proposed a trans-disciplinary research method based on the European Union title recognition - European Green Capital (EGC) -, directly related to the Circular Economy (CE), together with a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). This paper highlights sustainable measures and proposes common managerial strategies and policies, that can support the cities/regions' sustainable practices embedding as well as ensure its overall monitoring to measure if the actions implemented through time are adequate and efficient towards attaining CE and sustainable development. Those are based on the analysis of the best practices of the EGC, which can impact on CE, and using DEA. This approach can follow the city/region evolution and be adapted to the EGC evaluation parameters in order to understand the main characteristics that can contribute to improve governance approaches and help to foster CE into all the cities/regions' ecosystem.
