SMARTCOMP is the premier forum for exploring cutting-edge research,
innovation, and applications in the rapidly evolving domain of smart
computing, encompassing advancements in sensor-based technologies, IoT,
cyber-physical systems, edge and cloud computing, big data, machine
learning, and AI.
The IEEE SMARTCOMP 2025 organizers invite proposals for tutorials. We will
consider tutorials on any topic if highly relevant for the SMARTCOMP
community. Tutorials should be of interest for a substantial part of the
SMARTCOMP audience and represent a sufficiently mature area of research or
a particular emerging topic. Topics can include pervasive/ubiquitous
computing, edge/cloud computing, software defined networking, sensor
networks, decision making under uncertainty, IoT, AI/deep learning,
security and privacy, cyber- physical systems and their application, social
computing, cognitive computing, and validation within smart computing
environments (smart buildings, cities, grids, healthcare, transport,
precision agriculture and other innovations contributing to smart living).
*Submission Guidelines*
The tutorial proposals should include:
- Title of the tutorial;
- Short biography of the organizer(s);
- An extended abstract describing objectives, motivation and
references of the tutorial. This will be included in the conference
proceedings in case of acceptance.
- Timeliness, duration (e.g., 1.5h; 3h) and estimated audience.
- An outline of the tutorial content, including its tentative
schedule.
- Pre-required environment (e.g., Virtual machine, PC
characteristics, AWS account, etc. if necessary)
- If appropriate, a description of the past/relevant experience of
the speaker(s) on the topic of the tutorial.
-
In the previous year, tutorials were organized on the 2nd day of the
conference.
Proposals should be submitted, no later than *April 16, 2025*, in PDF
format by email to *aisling.odriscoll@ucc.ie <aisling.odriscoll@ucc.ie>*
and *fdevita@unime.it <fdevita@unime.it>* with the subject line "*SMARTCOMP
2025 Tutorial Proposal*".
Proposals will be evaluated based on the relevance for the SMARTCOMP
community, quality of the proposal and expertise of the presenters. If
accepted, the tutorial organizers could provide tutorial materials that
will be made available on a dedicated section of the main conference
website. A call for participation will be disseminated by publicity chairs

*Call for Contributions: SmartComp 2025 PhD Forum*
The Ph.D. Forum at SmartComp 2025 provides an opportunity for Ph.D.
students to present their work in progress to the scientific community and
obtain individual feedback from leading researchers in the field. This
forum is intended to provide doctoral students with a platform to interact
with established researchers from both academia and industry and get useful
guidance on the broader impacts of their research.
The Forum will be structured as a poster presentation session and
discussions. The poster presentations will be interleaved with speeches by
leading researchers, who will provide their own perspectives on research in
the field, as well as on how to best pursue a Ph.D. in this context.
Current Ph.D. students at any stage of their career are encouraged to
submit a 3-page extended abstract about their research to be considered for
the Ph.D. Forum. The student should be the sole author, although the
contributions of the advisor and others should be acknowledged. Submissions
will be reviewed by the Ph.D. Forum program committee to ensure quality,
relevance, and potential benefit from attendance at the Forum. Submissions
are expected to include motivation of the importance and challenges to the
particular problem, and initial results that support either the importance
of the research problem or viability of solutions. Authors of accepted
submissions are expected to participate in-person. The proceedings of the
Forum will be included in the proceedings of the main conference.
*Submission Guidelines*
Abstract should be no more than 3 pages in length, including figures,
tables, and references.
A brief statement by the Ph.D. advisor in support of the submission as
well as a CV of the PhD candidate (max. 3 pages) should be submitted
together with the abstract.
Authors are requested to submit manuscripts in standard IEEE proceedings
format in PDF. All submissions must be typeset in double-column IEEE format
using 10pt fonts on US letter paper, with all fonts embedded. Submitted
abstracts must include the contact information of the authors. Please make
sure you use the latest version of the templates to prepare your
submissions.
*Important Dates*
*Submission: March 1st 2025 *
Acceptance notification: April 15th 2025
Camera ready: May 1st 2025

*Call for Posters/Demos/WIP*
SMARTCOMP 2025 is the 11th edition of the premier conference on Smart
Computing. Smart computing is a multidisciplinary domain based on the
synergistic influence of advances in sensor-based technologies, the
Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems (CPS), edge computing, big data
analytics, machine learning, cognitive computing, and artificial
intelligence. Applications of smart computing can be found in different
societal domains including, but not limited to, transportation, energy,
environmental protection, smart and connected communities, healthcare,
banking, industrial systems, entertainment, and social media. Algorithmic
and system advancements in cloud computing, mobile/pervasive computing,
cyber-physical systems, sensor networking, and social computing are taking
smart computing to a new dimension and improving our ways of living.
The Posters and Work in Progress (WIP) session will provide a forum to
discuss novel ideas, preliminary results, present innovative applications
and tools, and bring about novel research questions, approaches, and
directions.
The Demo session will focus on hands-on demonstrations of preliminary works
on novel platforms, implementations, and case studies. We particularly
welcome demos that present innovative designs or advancements in CPS,
providing attendees with the opportunity to experience cutting-edge
technology firsthand.
We encourage both academia and industry to contribute by sharing valuable
insights into real-world applications and innovative solutions in Smart
Computing.
Industry submissions are invited to reflect practical experiences, field
trials, and emerging trends from an industrial perspective, demonstrating
the impact and applicability of Smart Computing technologies.
Authors of papers that received favorable reviews but could not be accepted

*Submission Guidelines*
Posters, Demos, and WIP papers should be no more than 3 pages in length,
including figures, tables, and references.
All the submissions must be formatted according to the two-column IEEE
proceedings template. IEEE provides corresponding formatting templates at
IEEE proceedings template (
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html). Make sure to
use the conference mode of the template, i.e., LaTeX users must use the
conference option of the IEEEtran document class. While the submission
format is the same, the goals for Posters/WIP and Demos are different:
· *Posters/WIP:* We welcome papers up to 3 pages discussing early
or ongoing research. Posters/WIP are intended to present ongoing research
with a focus on novel methodologies, preliminary results, or innovative
concepts that hold promise for future development, highlighting key ideas,
or research directions in a concise format, fostering discussion and
feedback on emerging work/applications.
· *Demo:* We welcome papers up to 3 pages focused on the specific
component that will be demonstrated to the audience and how the attendees
will be able to interact. They should also provide an overview of the
background research leading up to the demo.
All submitted Posters/WIP, and Demos will be subject to peer reviews by
SMARTCOMP Technical Program Committee members and other experts in the
field. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and attend
the conference to present the work.
Papers must be submitted electronically as a single PDF file on US Letter
size paper (not A4), with all fonts embedded (the PDF-A standard complies
with that), through EDAS. Select Posters/WIP or Demos Track at the
following link: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=33045
*Best Poster/Demo/WIP Award*
In recognition of outstanding contributions to the field, SMARTCOMP 2025
will present the Best Posters/Demos/WIP Award to the submission that
demonstrates exceptional quality, innovation, and potential impact in Smart
Computing. This award will honor the work that best exemplifies
forward-thinking approaches and technological advancements showcased during
the Posters/Demos/WIP presentation.
*Important Dates*
· *Paper submission: 23rd March 2025*
· Acceptance notification: 6th April 2025
· Camera ready (tentative): 10th May 2025
