Sino-EU Doctoral School for Sustainability Engineering(SESE)
The 1st International Workshop on Distributed Autonomous Computing in Smart City (DACSC 2017)
Helsinki, Finland, 21-23August, 2017
Sino-EU Doctoral School for Sustainability Engineering (SESE)is established under Sino-Europe Engineering Education Platform (SEEEP) framework. The main purpose of SESE is to provide opportunities for researchers, especially doctoral students and postdocs, to discuss the emerging challenging, exchange novel ideas and establish collaboration.
Smart city is an urban development vision to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) and Internet of things (IoT) technology in a secure fashion to manage a city's assets. It is a comprehensive systematic project which covers top-level design, integration, service application deployment. Communication infrastructure and intelligent information processing play a critical role in smart city construction. For example, the architecture and key technologies of future network significantly affect how information flows in smart cities, while the intelligent information technologies like data mining and artificial intelligence help entities better understand and react to surrounding environments. Facing the complex network architecture and huge amounts of heterogeneous information, distributed autonomous computing attracts massive amount of attention from both academia and industry. This workshop is a networking event for the students involved in the SESE with the subject of Autonomous Mobility Cooperative Research to discuss these challenges in smart city.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
- Crowdsourcing framework and its key mechanisms
- Future network and system infrastructure that supports smart cities
- Wireless and mobile communications in smart cities
- E-business, digital economy and investment in smart cities
- Green and energy efficient technologies
- Social network analysis in urban environment
- Vehicular networks
- Big data analytics for smart city
- Smart transportation
- Software-define network
- Security and privacy
- Application, deployment, testbed, and experiment experiences in smart cities
