Special Track on Knowledge acquisition in smart contexts: Systems, Methods and Applications

The proliferation of smart and context‐aware scenarios is transforming and enhancing human‐computer and device‐to‐device interactions in a myriad of contexts, such as health, energy, transportation, information management, and privacy & security. Therefore, multiple actors and resources need to co‐ exist (e.g. IoT devices, users, communications infrastructure) in an efficient and sound manner. The heterogeneous nature of such scenarios opens the door to new paradigms, from data retrieving and processing to wisdom acquisition.

Based on the features described above, this session aims to address the challenges and open issues related to smart contexts by using novel and sound methods and technologies, as well as establishing a forum for exchanging ideas, thoughts and contributions. High‐quality contributions addressing related theoretical and practical aspects are expected that cover (but are not limited to) the following topics:

Topics

IoT‐based applications

Security and privacy frameworks for IoT‐based smart cities

Smart healthcare

Smart and cognitive cities

Recommendation and prediction systems in context‐aware environments

Smart transportation systems

Process management and personalized services using smart cities infrastructures

IoT, ICT and smart cities data interoperability challenges and solutions

Blockchain‐based data management and processing
