                  CALL FOR PAPERS

The 2013 IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical 

            and Social Computing (CPSCom 2013) 

       http://www.china-iot.net/cpscom2013.htm 

          Beijing, China, August 20-23, 2013 

========================================================= 

INTRODUCTION 

As an emerging cross-disciplinary research area, the Cyber Physical System (CPS) is attracting attention worldwide. A Cyber-Physical Systems is a system featuring a combination of computational and physical elements, all of which are capable of interacting, reflecting and influencing each other. Furthermore, social systems are evolving with cyber systems 

and physical systems along with the popularity of online social networking. With the advent of ubiquitous sensing and networking, future social networks turn into cyber-physical interactions, which are attached with associated social attributes. 

The emergence of the cyber-physical-social computing will significantly change the way we see the world. In the mean time, the convergence of the physical, cyber, and social spaces will exhibit a variety of complicated characteristics, which brings more open issues and challenges for 

research communities. 

The 2013 IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical, and Social Computing (CPSCom 2013) will provide a high-profile, leading-edge forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present state-of-art advances and innovations in theoretical foundations, systems, infrastructure, tools, testbeds, and applications for the CPSCom, as well as to 

identify emerging research topics and define the future. CPSCom 2013 is the 6th edition of the successful series, previously held as CPSCom 2012 (Besançon, France), CPSCom 2011 (Dalian, China), CPSCom 2010 (Hangzhou, China), CyberSocialCom 2009 (Hangzhou, China), and CPSC 2009 (Brisbane, Australia).

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES 

=====================

Authors are invited to submit original papers that MUST NOT have been submitted to or published in any other workshop, conference, or journal. Full Papers (up to 8 pages) and Short Papers (up to 4 pages) are solicited. Detailed submission instructions could be found on the conference website http://www.china-iot.net/CPSCom_submission.htm. All papers 

will be reviewed by the Program Committee for significance, originality, accuracy, and clarity. 

PAPER PUBLICATIONS 

==================

Each submission should be regarded as an undertaking that, if the paper is accepted, at least one of the authors must attend the conference to present the work in order for the paper to be included in the IEEE Digital Library. Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of CPSCom 2013 by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for publication in several SCI-index international journals (check http://www.china-iot.net/CPSCom_issues.htm for details). 

WORKSHOPS 

=========

Submit a workshop paper to one of the workshops.  Workshop proceedings will be published by IEEE CS Press. Workshops with more than 15 papers will be granted with a free complimentary registration for the leading workshop organizer. See the list of workshops and CFP at
