Introduction: Developing a smart city to better support growing urban population is a global and complex challenge and involve interdisciplinary fields. A smart city uses digital technologies to enhance performance and wellbeing, to reduce costs and resource consumption, and to connect its communities and engage more effectively and actively with its citizens. Key 'smart' sectors include transportation, cloud computing, networking, smart building, energy, health care, and water systems. A smart city should be able to respond faster to city and global challenges than one with a simple 'transactional' relationship with its citizens.

IEEE SmartCity 2017 is aiming to be a premier international conference in smart city. This symposium is to bring together computer scientists, industrial engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange experimental or theoretical results, novel designs, work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend- setting ideas in the area of smart city include all aspects of smart city with emphasis on algorithms, systems, models, architectures, tools, design methodologies, test and applications.

Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:

Smart Buildings Smart Transportation Smart and connected Communities E-health Systems Green Network and Energy Efficiency Smart Grid Environment and Urban Monitoring Big Data for Urban Informatics Embedded Computing and fog computing for Smart Cities Application Scenarios and Real-world Deployments for Smart Cities Internet of Things for Smart Cities Cloud Computing and Network Infrastructure for Smart Cities Smart Water System Social Computing and Networks for Smart Cities Smart University and Smart Education
