CALL FOR PAPERS
*The First International Conference on IoT in Urban Space* http://urbaniot.org/2014
*27 - 28 October, 2014 – Rome, Italy*
**Co-sponsored by* *In-Cooperation with * *Endorsed by:* *
*SCOPE:*
Urban spaces are the man made microcosms where a number of entities interact with each other to offer citizens a variety of services, for instance, buildings and infrastructure, transportation, utility, public safety, healthcare, education. The interplay between this multitude of connecting entities creates a complex system with dynamic human, material, and digital flows. By 2050 the world’s urban population is expected to grow by 72%. This steep growth creates an unprecedented urge for understanding cities to enable planning for the future societal, economical and environmental well being of their citizens. The increasing deployments of Internet of Thing (IoT) technologies and the rise of so-called “Sensored Cities” are opening up new avenues of research opportunities towards that future. Although, there have been a number of deployment of diverse IoT systems in the urban space, our understanding of these systems and their implications has just scratched the surface.
Urb-IoT 2014 is a new and exciting conference that aims to explore these dynamics within the scope of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the new science of cities. The conference solicits original and inspiring research contributions from technology experts, researchers, designers, urban planners, and architects in academia and industry, and promises to offer a perfect forum to share knowledge, experiences, and best practices primarily in the area of:
* Citizen Awareness and Engagement: Methods and studies for citizen involvement through participatory sensing or crowd-sourcing for urban tasks, as well as behavioural change of the citizen through awareness. * Urban Analytics: Understanding the massive digital traces created by IoT in the urban landscape through big data analytics. * IoT Applications and Services in Urban Context: Urban technologies and applications that challenge the state of the art and benefit citizens, decision and policy makers, and urban planners.
HIGHLIGHTS:
NEWS!!! Deadline extended:
* Abstract submission deadline: 22 June 2014 * Full Paper Submission deadline: 28 June 2014
* Two confirmed Keynote Speakers: Dr.Eric Paulos http://www.paulos.net, University of California, Berkeley, USA; Dr.Mischa Dohler http://www.kcl.ac.uk/nms/depts/informatics/people/atoz/dohlerm.aspx, Kings College London, UK.
* Participation in this event will give attendees the unique opportunity to be exposed to all technical scientific aspects of IoT related topic areas at *co-located conferences* http://urbaniot.org/2014/show/news, as well as be able to get a 360° perspective on IoT market place and business aspects/ innovation in practice at the:
IOT360 Summit http://eai.mailmta.com/nl/l.jsp?uH.CB9.XyF.PR.Bj.ejM1
PUBLICATION:
All accepted papers will be published by ACM and will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Best papers will be invited to publish in the EAI Endorsed Transactions on Ambient Systems http://eai.eu/transaction/ambient-systems and EAI Endorsed Transactions on Ubiquitous Environments http://eai.eu/transaction/ubiquitous-environments.
CONFERENCE TOPICS:
Topics are themed by urban space and include, but are not limited to:
* Monitoring the pulse of the city * Fusion of heterogeneous urban sources * Understanding urban data using machine learning and mining techniques * Visual analytics of urban data * City as a platform * Participatory and crowd sourcing techniques * Incentification and gamification * Citizen and crowd influence and behavioural change * Data-driven urban planning and design * Crowd behaviour capturing and modelling * Urban mobility and intelligent transportation systems * Smart cities * Real time urban information systems * Context awareness in urban systems * Privacy and data protection
*PAPER SUBMISSION*
**
**
All papers will be reviewed by an international program committee with the appropriate expertise. At least two members of the Program Committee and a set of external expert reviewers will review submitted papers. At a PC meeting, the committee will select the papers to be presented at Urb-IoT 2014. Research contributions will be selected on the basis of novelty, technical merit, and a clear presentation. Submissions must clearly articulate how they relate to solve a particular problem in the scope of urban spaces. Contributions describing the role of IoT in understanding urban dynamics as well as real world systems in sensing and interpreting city scale signal are particularly of interest.
Submitted papers for review must not exceed six (6) pages and should be in PDF and formatted in the ACM Double Column format. Urb-IoT 2014 adopts a double-blind process for submitted contributions. Authors' names and their affiliations must not be revealed or mentioned anywhere in the submission. Detailed format and submission instructions including style templates for MS Word and LaTex are provided here(Word http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/pubform.doc, Latex http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates).
