SCOPE
With the development of wireless communication technologies, e.g., wireless sensor networks, wireless mesh networks, large scale industrial plants slowly get the opportunities to adapt their advantages. Traditional industrial fieldbus can be replaced by wireless networks, which give more flexibility with lower cost and risk of single point of failure. Thousands of industrial equipment can also be monitored by using wireless sensors to detect their health status and even diagnose the type/location of fault based on extracted features.
We see a huge potential of applying wireless technologies and artificial intelligence to make the existing large scale industrial plants smarter. We also see a huge amount of effort should be made to realize this beautiful computing vision. Thus, in this workshop, we are interested in exploring recent emerging technologies and research developments on industrial networks and intelligent systems to advance the step towards the smarter plants. We welcome paper submissions from both academic and industrial societies. The workshop will be a half-day workshop in conjunction with the fourth IEEE/CIC International Conference on Communications in China (ICCC 2015), which will be held in the magnificent city of Shenzhen, China, 2-4 November, 2015.
Topics of interest include (but not limited to) the following:
* State-of-the-art technologies in industrial networks and intelligent systems
* Wireless industrial networks development
* Industrial wireless sensor networks and its applications
* Large scale industrial plants monitoring and security
* Design of intelligent industrial systems
* Security of wireless industrial networks
* Fault diagnosis on large scale industrial equipment
* Intelligent energy harvesting technologies for industrial networks
* Cloud computing for intelligent industrial processing management
* Intelligent middleware for industrial networks and systems integration
* Low emission energy and efficient resources use for a sustainable city
* Applications for smart city
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
AINIS workshop accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers in the area of industrial networks and intelligent systems.
