by Leonidas Anthopoulos 30 Jan '19

30 Jan '19

(Apologies for cross-posts) ----------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS AW4city 2019, 5th International ACM Smart City Workshop: Enhancing Urban Mobility with Web Applications In conjunction with The Web Conference (WWW'19): 29th World Wide Web International Conference, San Francisco, May 13, 2019 http://aw4city2019.wordpress.com Important Dates ------------------------- Extended submissions due: Feb 14, 2019, 2019 (23:59 Anywhere on Earth (AoE) time zone) Notification of Acceptance: Feb. 21, 2019. Camera-ready version due: Mar. 3, 2019. Workshop authors' registration and camera-ready papers: Mar. 3, 2019 Workshop day: May 13, 2019 Workshop Objective ---------------------------- Following up the success of the past events at WWW2015, WWW2016, WWW2017 and WWW2018, the 5th AW4City 2019 aims to keep on attracting a significant international attention with regard to web applications for smart cities. This year, AW4City emphasizes on the contribution of web applications and Apps to urban mobility. In the era of cities and under the UN 2030 Agenda for sustainable growth, cities are making an important shift regarding thinking of compact cities and they develop sustainable mobility plans. Issues like parking, traffic congestion and safety, sharing transportation and smart parking are among the topics where governments and the industry direct smart services, while data collection and analysis enable government's fast -or even real-time- decision-making for alternative transportation means' deliberation, public transportation changes, urban planning etc., and new business models appear that utilize platforms and data. Additionally, new types of business in transportation appear (e.g., that utilize sensors and big data), while things' transportation is another challenge that cities have been started phasing. Τhis workshop aims to demonstrate how web applications and Apps can enhance transportation services and urban mobility in general. The aim of this workshop is to address web-based application and Apps' design and development in the smart city and urban context. More specifically, it focuses on innovative applications smart city component and more specifically on the design and implementation of web-based applications and Apps. This component is crucial, since it addresses all the smart city dimensions: * Economy, since new types of entrepreneurship and innovative business models appear in data, creative and climate economies, and develop web applications and Apps. * Mobility, with regard to urban transportation (intelligent transportation), distance working, job offering demonstration etc. * Environment, since applications enhance resource management, transportation improvement, environmental monitoring etc. * Living, since applications enhance local life (i.e., e-learning, e-banking, e-commerce, e-tourism etc.). * People, since they concern applications' end users and * Governance, where open data and e-government applications play crucial roles in smart city operation. Theoretical concepts, empirical evidence and selected case studies from leading scholars and practitioners in the field showing the "big picture" of smart cities and urban areas will be examined in this workshop. This workshop aims at gathering researchers from the fields of smart cities and web application development to think about the obstacles that hurdle the leveraging of understanding and capturing of smart city trends with regard web application development that interconnect citizens, businesses and government in a smart city. AW4City 2019 is timely since sustainable transportation has been addressed as one of the UN Agenda 2030 strategic goals, while ISO37120 and ISO37122 that certify city services focus on smart and sustainable transportation too. Last but not least, customer satisfaction is being measured real-time, while corresponding safety can be ensured with the use of platforms (e.g., Uber and Lyft). All these issues are being supported by data, the Web and Apps and it is important to focus on future achievements. Additionally, an increasing criticism is that smart city represents an ambiguous urban utopia, which is supported by the partnership of local governments with big technological vendors. Articles can deliver a clearer view of smart city reality, while innovative applications can strengthen the existence of opportunities for new entrants in the smart city market. Moreover, most standardization bodies evolve competitive standards for smart city components and to this end, this workshop is expected to highlight existing development and trends with regard to application development (web-based, apps and end-to-end). We target researchers from both industry and academia to join forces in this exciting area. We intend to discuss the recent and significant developments in the general areas of smart cities and web applications and to promote cross-fertilization of techniques. In particular, we aim at identifying trends and respective applications in smart cities; the potential impact of smart city in web applications; techniques from end-to-end solutions' or apps' development that will enable researchers to understand the dynamic phenomena in smart cities, as well as specify important directions for the research communities. Standards for web applications' development in smart cities is interesting for several areas such as sustainability, crisis management, marketing, security, and interoperability. To address the above mentioned aspects, we solicit the following topics (but not limited to): * Enhancing mobility experience with Web Applications and Apps; * Apps that support mobility, sharing, crowd-sourcing etc.; * Smart City management systems with emphasis on mobility (e.g. parking; traffic etc.); * Mobility Practices of Web applications and Apps in smart cities; * Theoretical foundations on Smart City applications and standards; * Creative partnerships, creative industries and industry 4.0 in Smart City with a focus on application development (Internet Economics and Monetization); * Pervasive Web and Mobility for Smart City emerging topics (i.e., user behavior analytics, energy, water, waste, transportation etc.) * The role of mobility partners for smart city applications development and standardization (i.e., promotion push, start-ups, open data); * Web Infrastructure standardization; * The role of standards on smart city data mining; * Smart city mobility e-services; * Smart city information quality and evolution in social content; * Ensuring mobility security and privacy in Smart Cities: the role of web applications and Apps.

29 Jan '19

----------------------Call for Papers ------------------------------------------------ The 7th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud 2019), IEEE CS- TCI 26-28 August 2019, Istanbul, Turkey http://www.ficloud.org/2019/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Internet of Things (IoT) vision is to provide a dynamic and global network infrastructure which is characterized by intelligent and self configuring capabilities. IoT is considered as an integral part of the future Internet. It is based on interoperable communication protocols in order to enable the interaction and integration of virtual as well as physical Things such as computers, smart devices, sensors, cars, refrigerators, food packages, medicines, etc. Things can be seamlessly integrated into the information network and interaction can be made through the provision of intelligent interfaces. In not so distant future, IoT will be forcing its way into every aspect of our lives and technologies including smart homes, smart cities, environment and nature, green energy, food, medicine, automotive, aerospace and aviation, telecommunication, and so on. IoT is generally characterized by real world and small Things, limited capacity, constrained devices and the consequential issues such as less reliability, security and privacy. Cloud computing on the other hand deals mainly with virtual world and has unlimited capabilities in terms of storage and processing power. Thus cloud and IoT are the main complementary aspects of the future Internet. IoT can benefit from the unlimited capabilities and resources of cloud computing. Similarly, cloud can benefit from IoT by extending its scope to deal with real world things in a more distributed and dynamic manner. The theme of this conference is to promote the state of the art in scientific and practical research of the IoT and cloud computing. It provides a forum for bringing together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and public sector in an effort to present their research work and share research and development ideas in the area of IoT and cloud computing. CONFERENCE TRACKS: - Cloud Models - SaaS, IaaS, PaaS - Security, Privacy and Trust - Software Systems, Models and Architectures - Mobile Cloud Services - Data and Knowledge Management - Context-awareness and Location-awareness - Software-defined Networking - Performance Evaluation and Modelling - Networking and Communication Protocols - IoT Services and Applications - Smart Environment - Enterprise and Business Models - Energy Efficiency - Federation and Virtualization - Fog and Edge Computing - Industry Track - General Track Paper submission and Publication: Authors are requested to submit papers reporting original research results and experience.
