CALL FOR PAPERS

3rd International Workshop on Urban Computing Coral Bay, Cyprus (with IEEE DCOSS 2021)

Website: https://sites.google.com/view/urbcom-2021

**** Important Dates ****

Paper Submission: March 26, 2021 Acceptance Notification: April 25, 2021 Camera Ready: May 2, 2021

**** Aims and Scope ****

It is undeniable that the cities' urbanisation has modernised people's lives, bringing several benefits to the population. However, it has also brought serious challenges such as public management of collective spaces, air pollution, traffic congestion, energy consumption, and quality of life. In this context, Urban Computing emerges as a process of acquisition, integration, and analysis of a large volume of heterogeneous data generated from different sources in urban spaces, such as portable devices, sensors, vehicles, humans, among others. Urban Computing is an interdisciplinary area that connects information and communication technology, advanced management of large volumes of data, and diverse data analysis methods to propose solutions to problems faced by cities. In addition, Urban Computing seeks to understand the nature of urban and social phenomena to better plan the future of cities and improve their inhabitants' quality of life.

UrbCom aims to create a space for: (1) presentation and discussion of studies in the area of Urban Computing; (2) collaboration between researchers from different areas that, given the interdisciplinary nature, is not limited to Computer Science.

**** Topics of interest (not limited to) ****

Architectures and Protocols for Urban Environments Data Analysis and Mining D2D and 5G Communication in Urban Environments Data Offloading e-Governance e-Health and m-Health Green Computing in Urban Environments Heterogeneous Data Management Human Mobility Human-Computer Interaction in Urban Spaces Improving Quality of Life in the City Using Mobile Services and Big Data Intelligent Transportation Systems Internet of Things Location Based Services Participatory / Opportunistic Sensing Recommendation Systems Reliability and Security in Urban Computing Smart Cities Social Computing Urban Data Visualisation Urban Planning Using Big Data Urban Sensing Infrastructures
