IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics call for papers for special issue on “Internet-of-Things for Smart Cities and Urban Informatics”
The Theme: Cities around the world are currently under quick transition towards a low carbon environment, high quality of living, and resource efficient economy. Smart systems are crucial components for building sustainable cities and aggregating comprehensive urban informatics. Internet-of-Things (IoT) is an emerging technology evolved from the convergence of wireless technologies, embedded systems, and the Internet. Extensive research on IoT is taking place on sensing and automatic control, network infrastructure and communication, and big data analytics. It facilitates a multidisciplinary approach for developing integrated solutions and creating novel applications to build a sustainable society. Combinations of IoT with autonomous systems, machine intelligence, sensor and actuator networks, provide smart functions in wide application domains, including environmental monitoring, smart transportation, industrial production, and security surveillance.
This Special Section on “Internet-of-Things for smart cities and urban informatics” is focused on the development, adoption and application of IoT technology to improve efficiency of cities and enhance urban services in the society. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following research topics and technologies:
- IoT infrastructure and applications for smart cities - IoT testbed and experiment experiences in smart cities - Big data for urban informatics - IoT and cloud computing for smart cities - IoT and automation for smart cities - IoT for industrial production and smart services - Environment and urban monitoring - Wireless and mobile technologies for smart cities - Wearable sensing and communication for smart cities - Fault tolerance, reliability and survivability in smart systems - Green networking and energy efficiency - Human mobility modeling and analytics - Mobile crowdsourcing for urban analytics - Security and privacy for IoT and smart cities - IoT and e-health systems - Smart grids and smart buildings - Vehicular networks and smart transportation - Social engagement in IoT for smart cities
Papers discussing new application areas and the resulting new developments at the interface of information technology and automation are especially welcome. All contributions must focus on the use of information technology in automation. Results obtained by simulations must be validated in bounds by experiments or analytical results. Manuscript Preparation and Submission: Manuscript submission should be of 8 or fewer pages formatted with IEEE journal standard. Follow the guidelines in “Information for Authors” in the IEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics http://tii.ieee-ies.org/ Please submit your manuscript in electronic form through Manuscript Central web site: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tii. On the submitting page #1 in popup menu of manuscript type, select: SS on Internet-of-Things for Smart Cities and Urban Informatics
Submissions to this Special Section must represent original material that has been neither submitted to, nor published in, any other journal. Extended versions of papers previously published in conference proceedings may be eligible for consideration if conditions listed in http://tii.ieee-ies.org/o/PC.pdf are fulfilled. Before submitting manuscript check the review criteria (http://tii.ieee-ies.org/o/RC.pdf) and other information (http://tii.ieee-ies.org/o/DI.pdf)
Note: The recommended papers for the section are subject to final approval by the Editor-in-Chief. Some papers may be published outside the special section, at the EIC discretion.
Deadline for manuscript submissions: December 31, 2015 Expected publication date: November, 2016
