Dear Colleagues:

Please accept our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.

Call for papers of CPSCom-2019

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

The 12th IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical and Social Computing

July 14--17, 2019

Atlanta, USA

http://cse.stfx.ca/~cybermatics/2019/cpscom/index.php

Selected papers, after further extensions and revisions, will be recommended to special

issues of SCI and EI journals.

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

As an emerging cross-disciplinary research area, the Cyber-Physical System (CPS) is attracting attention worldwide.

CPS features a combination of computational and physical elements, all of which are capable of interacting, reflecting

and influencing each other. Another emerging cross-disciplinary research area, the Cyber-Social System (CSS) is rapidly

evolving 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 2019 IEEE International Conference on Cyber Physical and Social Computing (CPSCom-2019) will cover both CPS

and CSS as well as their further integration, namely CPSS, the Cyber-Physical-Social System. It will provide a high-profile,

leading-edge forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present state-of-art advances and innovations, as well as

to identify emerging research topics and define the future. We seek submissions of papers which invent new techniques,

introduce innovative methodologies, and propose new research directions in advanced CPS, CSS and CPSS.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Track 1: System & Design

² Efficient architectures for CPSS

² Low power and energy harvesting

² Real-time systems

² Wearable devices management

² System-level design methodology

² Embedded hardware and software

² Smart services platform

² Incremental computing of big data

² Tensor computing in CPSS

² Multi-attributes matching in CPSS

Track 3: Networks & Communications

² Wireless sensor networks

² Radio frequency identification

² Sensor network and communications

² 5G Communications

² Communications in edge computing

² Machine-to-machine communications

² Energy efficient in wireless networks

² Green communication

Track 4: Technologies & Applications

² Narrow band Internet-of-Things

² E-health in CPSS

² Environment monitoring

² Smart city

² Privacy and privacy-preserving systems

² Cyber Physical Systems and their safety

² Adaptive and intelligent systems

² Deep learning in CPSS

² Blockchain-based applications in CPSS
