SCOPE AND OVERVIEW

Smart computing is emerging as an important multidisciplinary area,
which can be broadly classified into two major topics: how to design and
build smart computing systems, and how to use computing technology for
resource sustainability to improve the human experience. Applications of
smart computing span different business areas including, but not limited
to, transportation, energy, environmental protection, resource
management, healthcare, security, banking, entertainment, and social
media. The advancement of cloud computing, mobile/pervasive computing,
cyber-physical systems, sensor networking and social computing are
bringing smart computing to a newer dimension and improving our ways of
living.

The 2nd IEEE International Conference on Smart Computing (SMARTCOMP
2016) invites original papers on any topic that is related to smart
computing. With the theme "Smart Living through Computing", SMARTCOMP
2016 will be a forum for the presentation and exchange of cutting-edge
ideas.

The topics to be addressed at SMARTCOMP 2016 will include, but are not
limited to, all aspects of smart computing such as pervasive/ubiquitous
computing, cloud computing, sensor networks, internet of things, big
data analytics, security and privacy, social computing, cognitive
computing, cyber-physical systems, smart buildings, smart cities and
grids. We encourage submissions that showcase fundamental research to
address challenges in enabling Smart and Connected Communities.
Submissions should be targeted to one of the following five major areas:

* Smart Cyber-Physical Environments and
Energy/Water/Agriculture/Transportation/Healthcare/Banking Infrastructure
* Security, Privacy, and Economics in Smart Environments
* Smart Computing Technologies
* Future Smart Computing Paradigms
* Smart Human Environments, Health, Entertainment, and Social Activities
* Smart Energy Management and Analytics


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Paper submissions should be no longer than 8 pages and formatted
according to the IEEE conference template
(http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html).


Papers must be submitted electronically, as PDF files, through EasyChair
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=smartcomp2016).

All submitted papers will be subject to peer reviews by Technical
Program Committee members and other experts in the field. All presented
papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to
the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Selected high-quality papers will be
invited to submit (with substantial extension) to a special issue of the
Elsevier Journal on Pervasive and Mobile Computing (SCI indexed).

========================================================
**Call for Papers**

Elsevier Computers & Electrical Engineering (CAEE) Special issue on
Critical Systems Modeling and Security

========================================================

*Aim and Scope*

Modeling is an essential tool for the study and analysis of security
and dependability of Critical Information Infrastructures. It can be
used to evaluate properties such as disruption, disturbance and loss
of information, and to anticipate incidents that could lead to
situations involving economical, material and, even, human loss. This
special issue is intended to report the most recent research works
related to security threats, critical service malfunctioning or
information leakage targeting, among others, SCADA, Industrial Control
Systems and other Critical Scenarios, associated to both government
and industrial companies. It also seeks to report new needs,
approaches, methods and tools addressing this crucial topic.

*Topics of Interest*

The objective is to bring together advances particularly in the
following fields (not limited to):

-- Attack and vulnerability analysis
-- Benchmarking and statistical analysis tools
-- Wireless security modeling
-- Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP)
-- Cybersecurity and cyberwarfare modeling
-- Continuity of services
-- Dependable communication models
-- Infrastructure security modeling
-- Early Warning Systems
-- Embedded Technologies Security
-- Intrusion detection and prevention in Critical Scenarios
-- Fault tolerance and incident response
-- Risk analysis and management
-- SCADA/DCS and Control System Security
-- Secure information sharing
-- Security and dependability logistic models
-- Self-management architectures
-- Situation awareness and response optimization
-- Trust and reputation management in Critical Scenarios

*Submission Guidelines*

Papers will be evaluated based on their originality, presentation,
relevance and contribution to the topic associated to the special
issue, and for their overall quality. The submitted papers have to
describe original research which has not been published nor currently
under review by other journals or conferences. Guest editors will make
an initial determination of the suitability and scope of all
submissions. Papers that either lack originality, clarity in
presentation or fall outside the scope of the special issue will not
be sent for review and authors will be promptly informed in such
cases.

Author guidelines for preparation of manuscript can be found at:

http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/367/authorinstructions

Papers should be submitted via the EES application that can be found
at http://ees.elsevier.com/compeleceng/

To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion
into the special issue, it is important that authors select SI-sec
when they reach the 'Article Type' step in the submission process.

*Schedule*

Manuscript Due: January 31, 2016
First Round of Reviews: March 31, 2016
Second Round of Reviews: May 15, 2016
Acceptance of Final papers: September 15, 2016
Final Manuscript Due: December 15, 2016
Publication Date: April 2017
