[Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this email] *HotPlanet 2016 - 7th International Workshop on Hot Topics in Planet-Scale Measurement* *Workshop @ Ubicomp <http://ubicomp.org/ubicomp2016/> / ISWC 2016* *September 12-16, Heidelberg, Germany* The last decade has seen a rapid, planet-scale growth in deployment and usage of smart mobile devices, ambient sensors, smartphone applications and advanced communication technologies. This era has prompted for large-scale, planet-wide data collection, storage, processing and dissemination technologies, advancing our knowledge about human behaviour and interactions at a planetary scale. Evolution of such technologies and methodologies, in addition to the high investments in Internet of things (IoT) deployments, has inherently led to a number of security, privacy and ethical issues as well as new systems, networking, and application challenges. This 7th HotPlanet workshop will bring together networking, wireless, mobile computing and systems research to understand the challenges ahead and advance the dialogue on topics related to large-scale measurements and big data analytics centred on individuals. It aims to attract publications on data collection and analysis, such as knowledge-discovery methodologies, large-scale data mining, and big social media data and location traces analytics, but also on deployment challenges, such as innovative real-world measurement technologies, end-user applications, large-scale deployment experiences, and innovative large-scale mobile sensing systems. Topics of interest include: · Big data analytics (social media, mobility traces, prediction techniques, etc.) · Mobile sensing systems · Big data privacy & security · Large scale measurement methodologies · Novel social & sensing application · Open source and virtualized sensing infrastructure · Cloud computing paradigms for decentralized analysis · Incentive models for encouraging users and businesses to collect and contribute data · Profiling, personalisation, geo-targeting · Programming paradigms for large scale data collection · Data quality issues · Internet of Things · Smart energy-aware systems · Large scale mobile application and market experience · Regulatory, legal and ethical issues in planet-wide data collection Important Dates Paper Submission June 14, 2016 Notification June 26, 2016 Camera Ready Version Due July 3, 2016 Submission Instructions Submissions are now open.

CFP: IEEE SmartCity2016 (Smart City), Dec. 2016, Sydney, Australia
by Arne Wilston 01 Jun '16

01 Jun '16

Call for papers: The 14th IEEE International Conference on Smart City (SmartCity 2016), 12-14 Dec. 2016, Sydney, Australia. Website: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2016/smartcity/ Key dates: Submission Deadline: July 20, 2016 Notification: September 25, 2016 Final Manuscript Due: October 15, 2016 Submission site: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2016/smartcity/submission.htm Publication: Proceedings will be published by IEEE CS Press. Special issues: Distinguished papers will be selected for special issues in Journal of Network and Computer Applications, Future Generation Computer Systems, Journal of Computer and System Sciences, IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing =========== Introduction A smart city (also smarter city) uses digital technologies to enhance performance and wellbeing, to reduce costs and resource consumption, and to engage more effectively and actively with its citizens. Key 'smart' sectors include transport, energy, health care, water and waste. A smart city should be able to respond faster to city and global challenges than one with a simple 'transactional' relationship with its citizens. IEEE SmartCity 2016 is aiming to be a premier international conference in smart city. This symposium is to bring together computer scientists, industrial engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange experimental or theoretical results, novel designs, work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the area of smart city include all aspects of smart city with emphasis on algorithms, systems, models, compilers, architectures, tools, design methodologies, test and applications. Scope and Topics Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: • Smart Transportation • Smart Home and Community • E-health Systems • Environment and Urban Monitoring • Green Network and Energy Efficiency • Smart Electronic Systems for Security • Big Data for Urban Informatics • QoS and QoE of Smart City Systems, Applications and Services • Smart Sensor Technology and Measurement Systems • Smart University and Smart Education • Application Scenarios and Real-world Deployments for Smart Cities • Smart City Governance • Internet of Things for Smart Cities • Cloud Computing and Network Infrastructure for Smart Cities • Social Computing and Networks for Smart Cities • Embedded Computing and Networks for Smart Cities Submission Guidelines Submissions must include an abstract, keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed 8 pages for main conference, including tables and figures in IEEE CS format. The template files for LATEX or WORD can be downloaded here. All paper submissions must represent original and unpublished work. Each submission will be peer reviewed by at least three program committee members. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the conference and present the work. Submit your paper(s) in PDF file at the submission site: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2016/smartcity/submission.htm. Publications Accepted and presented papers will be included into the IEEE Conference Proceedings published by IEEE CS Press. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference, otherwise their papers may be removed from the digital libraries of IEEE CS and EI after the conference. Distinguished papers will be selected for special issues in Journal of Network and Computer Applications, Future Generation Computer Systems, Journal of Computer and System Sciences, IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing General Chairs Xiangyang Li, University of Science and Technology China, China Sanjay K.
