DETAILS ABOUT THE ISSUE
*****************************
Developing smart city is the key to the next generation urbanization process for improving the efficiency, reliability, and security of a traditional city. The concept of smart city includes various aspects such as environmental sustainability, social sustainability, regional competitiveness, natural resources management, cybersecurity, and quality of life improvement. With the massive deployment of networked smart devices/sensors, unprecedentedly large amount of sensory data can be collected and processed by advanced computing paradigms which are the enabling techniques for smart city. For example, given historical environmental, population and economic information, salient modeling and analytics are needed to simulate the impact of potential city planning strategies, which will be critical for intelligent decision making. Analytics are also indispensable for discovering the underlying structure from retrieved data in order to design the optimal policies for real time automatic control in the cyberphysical smart city system. Furthermore, uncertainties and security concerns in the data collected from heterogeneous resources aggravate the problem, which makes smart city planning, operation, monitoring and control highly challenging.
The topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to:
?Advanced big data modeling and analytics for smart city planning, monitoring and control ?Social media, crowdsourcing and collaborative behavior management ?Outdoor/indoor geolocation and cartography continuity ?Design and implementation of embedded system for smart city applications ?Advanced control techniques in the smart city as a cyberphysical system ?Technologies in electrical vehicle, smart building and smart home ?Cybersecurity and privacy issues related to smart city ?Heterogeneous sensor network and cooperative sensing for smart city ?Renewable energy and smart energy management for smart city ?Design and synthesis of computing schemes and architectures for smart city ?Development of fault detection and diagnosis techniques for smart city ?Modeling and computing techniques for environmental and social issues in smart city
?Sustainable technologies for smart city
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
*****************************
Prospective authors are invited to submit their manuscripts electronically after the ?open for submissions? date, adhering to the IEEE Transactions on Computers guidelines (http://www.computer.org/portal/web/tc/author http://www.computer.org/portal/web/tc/author).
