We are therefore pleased to invite researchers from software engineering and relevant disciplines to apply for research awards in software engineering—especially where it is applicable to the Internet of Things. We encourage proposals that utilize Microsoft mobile (Windows Phone) and cloud (Windows Azure) platforms, as well as other Microsoft technologies and Microsoft Research’s free tools and technologies. Some relevant and newly released technologies and tools are listed below. A practical application or evaluation component is strongly encouraged.  For more information and to apply: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/collaboration/focus/cs/seif-rfp.aspx
