======================= IEEE SCI 2018 Call for Papers =======================

The 2nd IEEE International Conference on Smart City Innovations

October 8-12, 2018, Guangzhou, China

http://www.smart-world.org/2018/sci/

===============================================================================
Towards Smart City Services and Infrastructures

Building smart cities require close collaborations among multi-disciplinary
teams composed of researchers and practitioners to solve urban computing and
smart city service problems. To cope with emerging challenges in engineering
diverse complex cyber systems for smart cities, it is critical to adopt
state-of-the-art technologies and solutions to build innovative smart city
services and application systems. Such advanced technologies include smart
sensing/devices/materials, IoT, networking, cloud computing, big data, machine
learning, and mobile cloud services.Typical researchareas cover smart city
transportation, clean environment, city utilities, public health, safety and
security, smart government, community, social services, community connectivity,
and soon. The 2nd IEEE International Conference on Smart City Innovations
(IEEE SCI 2018) aims to provide a unique platform for multi-disciplinary
researchers and teams, industry solution vendors, and government agencies to
exchange innovative ideas, challenges, research results and solutions, as well
as project experience reports and stories.

The IEEE SCI 2018 will include a highly selective program of technical papers,
accompanied by workshops, demos, panel discussions and keynote speeches. We
welcome high-quality papers that describe original and unpublished research
addressing theory, modeling and methodologies for building smart cities, as
well as case studies, challenges and needs in building smart cities. The IEEE
SCI 2018 focuses on Smart City Services and Infrastructures. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to the following:

Theory, Modeling and Methodologies
- Smart city networking, services and infrastructures
- Smart environment modeling, monitoring, prediction and analysis
- Smart city frameworks, platforms, and methodologies
- Smart city big data, open data, and urban computing
- Smart utilities, consumption, sensing and IoT
- Smart communities and neighborhoods
- Modeling security, safety and privacy for smart city
- Mobile cloud computing for smart city services
- Smart green city solutions and methodologies

Applications and Industry Practice
- Smart transportation system planning, evaluation, and technologies
- Smart sewage and water, electricity, grids, and meters
- Smart city public health, healthcare service monitoring and management
- Smart medical service systems, solutions and tools
- Smart city emergency altering, management and infrastructures
- Smart city crime watching and alerting systems
- Smart city education, training and social services
- Smart city governance and management
- Smart home, smart building and social community networks/infrastructures
