---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CPSCom 2011 The 4th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Cyber, Physical, and Social Computing

http://cpscom.org/ Sponsored by IEEE, IEEE CS, IEEE TCSC and ACM China Dalian, China, October 19–22, 2011 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. INTRODUCTION

The physical things and the human society have formed into the world we live in. However, the emergence of information technologies enables a new infrastructure for a technical, economic and social revolution, which have changed the world we are used to. Cyber-physical systems couple the cyber aspects of computing and communications with the physical aspects of dynamics that must abide by the laws of physics. Social computing has become more widely known because of proliferation of online social networking in recent years. With the advent of ubiquitous sensing, future social networks will become cyber-physical, combining measured elements of the physical world. The convergence of computational and physical processes as well as human's social behaviors exhibits a variety of complicated characteristics, which leads to a lot of challenges.

The 2011 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Cyber, Physical, and Social Computing (CPSCom'11) will provide a high-profile, leading-edge forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present state-of-art advances and innovations in theoretical foundations, systems, infrastructure, tools, testbeds, and applications for the CPSCom, as well as to identify emerging research topics and define the future. CPSCom'11 is the next edition of the successful series, previously held as CPSCom'10 (Hangzhou, China, December 2010), CyberSocialCom'09 (Hangzhou, China, November 2009), and CPSC'09 (Brisbane, Australia, July 2009).

2. SCOPE AND INTERESTS

Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: - Theoretical foundations of cyber, physical, and social computing - Intelligence and semantics in cyber, physical, and social computing - Architecture and infrastructure for cyber, physical, and social computing - Applications and experiences of cyber, physical, and social computing - Cyber-physical systems and society - Modeling, mining, and analysis of social data and social networks - Communication and control in cyber, physical, and social computing - Security, privacy, trust, and safety - Design of large scale of cyber, physical, and social systems - Tools for analysis, verification, control, and optimization of hybrid systems - Ubiquitous sensing with socially produced input - Mobile phones as social sensors - Cyber/digital human and network life

3. IMPORTANT DATES

Workshop Proposal Due: April 1, 2011 Submission Due: May 1, 2011 Notification of Acceptance: July 1, 2011 Final Manuscript Due: August 1, 2011

4. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Authors are invited to submit original papers that MUST NOT have been submitted to or published in any other workshop, conference, or journal. Full Papers (up to 10 pages) and Short Papers (up to 4 pages) are solicited. Detailed submission instructions could be found on the conference website http://cpscom.org. All papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee for significance, originality, accuracy, and clarity.

5. PAPER PUBLICATIONS

Each submission should be regarded as an undertaking that, if the paper is accepted, at least one of the authors must attend the conference to present the work in order for the paper to be included in the IEEE Digital Library. Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of CPSCom'11 by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for publication in several SCI-index international journals (check the website for details).

6. WORKSHOP PROPOSAL

Please submit a workshop proposal including call-for-papers, organizing committee, important dates, short bio of the organizers to the CPSCom'11 workshop chairs. Workshop proceedings will be published by IEEE CS Press. The workshops with more than 15 papers will be granted with a free complimentary registration for the leading workshop organizer.
