CALL FOR PAPERS
SIMULATION MODELLING PRACTICE AND THEORY SPECIAL ISSUE ON
“Smart Cities and Internet of Things”
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: June 30, 2016
THEME
The recent development of the information and communication technologies (ICTs) and Internet of Things (IoT) have affected the cities by changes in physical infrastructure, buildings, urban transportation systems, governance, healthcare and in other areas.
In smart cities the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) using devices, platforms and applications is of a great importance. The ICT technologies supporting smart cities services include devices connected through the Internet of Things, cloud computing and also their applications.
The scope of this special issue is to present state-of-the-art research covering a variety of concepts on the IoT and new technologies for building smart cities particularly in the process of modelling, simulation and performance evaluation of these technologies.
Papers for the Special Issue must provide a substantial novel contribution, and authors must carefully situate their work with regard to the relevant scientific literature. They must clearly address research issues of Smart Cities and IoT and show the role of modelling and simulation in this research area.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Internet of Things for Smart Cities • Future Cities • Ecological Cities • Smart buildings and environment • Efficient energy management • Rural communications • Environment and urban monitoring • Mobile crowdsourcing • Internet-supported healthcare and medical systems • Emergency management • Safety, security, privacy and trust • Mobile computing for Smart Cities • Cloud computing and big data systems • Data management in IoT • E-Government Services • Intelligent transportation and communication systems • Internet-based finance, business and enterprise • Real-time and semantic web services • System design, modelling, simulation and evaluation
