ETSD 2014: 2nd International Workshop on Emerging Technologies for Smart Devices
(In conjuction with ADHOC-NOW 2014)
June 22 - 27, 2014, Benidorm, Spain
Workshop Website: http://etsd.it.ubi.pt/
Submission Guidelines: http://etsd.it.ubi.pt/paperSubmission.html
==================================================================================
*** Important Note: The accepted papers will be published in LNCS-Springer proceedings, while revised and/or extended versions of the best papers will be published on a Special Issue at the Recent Advances on Communications and Networking Technology Journal, Bentham Science, USA
==================================================================================
SCOPE AND TOPICS:
The Internet of Things envisages over 5 billion connected smart devices for next generation wireless networks that will cause an exponential growth of data traffic over the next decade. These smart devices penetrate into our daily life and how the technologies for these devices evolve will also affect how people live in the future. To enable smart devices to meet the new 5G requirements, mobile stakeholders are already preparing the technology roadmap for next generation networks. 5G envisages design targets for smart devices such as high energy efficiency and throughput and low latency. The objective of this workshop is to attract researchers and technologists to discuss these topics in terms of concepts, state of the art, standards, deployments, running experiments and applications.
Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal, including, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- New communication paradigms for smart devices
- Mobile cloud
- Algorithms and protocols for smart devices
- Mobile services and applications (m-health, m-learning, m-government, etc.)
- Smart Device to Smart Device Communication
- Big data transfer using smart devices
- Virtualization using smart devices
- Cooperative and Cognitive communication using smart devices
- Simulation modeling and optimization for smart devices
- E-health for 5G
- Security and cryptography for smart devices
- Economic aspects

CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
16th IEEE International Conference on e-Health Networking, Application & Services (IEEE HEALTHCOM 2014)
Natal, RN Brazil – October 15-18, 2014
http://www.ieee-healthcom.org
OVERVIEW
IEEE HEALTHCOM 2014 is fully sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society. It aims at bringing together
interested parties from around the world working in the health care field to exchange ideas, to discuss
innovative and emerging solutions, and to develop collaborations. eHealth is defined as the cost-effective
and secure use of information and communications technologies in support of health and the related fields,
including health-care related services, surveillance, literature, education, knowledge, and research, both
at the local site and at a distance. It will make personalized medicine possible and affordable in the near
future. The adoption of eHealth technologies in medical fields creates huge opportunities yet lots of
challenges still need to be resolved to build reliable, secure, and efficient networks or platforms with
great flexibility.
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
The conference organizers ask for full-day workshop proposals on the eHealth area. A workshop should focus
on a specific theme of current interest that can attract high-quality submissions. A proposal should include
the following information:
1. Title of the workshop
2. Significance and timeliness
3. Full contact and a short bio of the workshop organizers
4. Planned format for the full-day workshop with expected paper submission volume
5. A tentative list of TPC members
6. A draft of Call for Papers
7. Advertisement plan for the Call for Papers
8. History of the workshop (if applicable)
PROPOSAL SUBMISSION
Workshop proposals should be sent to the workshop chairs, Dr. Youssef Iraqi (Youssef.iraqi(a)kustar.ac.ae) and
Dr. Honggang Wang (hwang1(a)umassd.edu)
